The heart and the bottle book5/29/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() They encourage us to see things in the stars, to find joy in colors and laughter as we play. We don' t realize it at the time, of course. There is a wonder and magic to childhood. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.īook Description Hardcover. But what begins promisingly runs into trouble, and it’s not clear who the message is directed toward: children just opening their eyes to the world, or parents who have lost their sense of curiosity? Even if children don’t glean much from the abstractions and subtleties of the narrative, they’re nevertheless in for a treat with the unforgettable visuals of imagination at play. The way in which Jeffers employs pictures in word balloons to convey the limberness of imagination is brilliant: the man points to the sky to talk about constellations, while the girl sees stars as inflamed bumblebees. This book showcases some absolutely captivating artwork. As she grows older, she loses her sense of wonderment, and it isn’t until she meets another young girl that she finds a way to free her heart again. But then the man’s chair is empty, and the girl puts her heart in a bottle to help with the hurt. A little girl delights in the boundless discoveries of the world around her with an older gentleman, likely her grandfather. ![]() The unequalled self5/29/2023 ![]() ![]() Shipping Multiple shipping options are available for this item.
