A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

The charming sequel to the acclaimed picture book When You Were Small (Simply Read Books, 2006) explores another one of those questions young children like to ask. 'Where did I come from,' little Henry asks his parents - and the answers they come up with are imaginative, hilarious, playful and will be enjoyed by children and their parents alike. Whimsical pen-and-ink drawings with watercolor accents and a lovely minimalist design complement the simple, poetic text.
