Review of 'There's No Such Thing as Little'

Too little? There's no such thing! Featuring die-cut holes, There's No Such Thing as Little is a heartwarming picture book from author and illustrator LeUyen Pham. This book will encourage readers of all ages to think about what being "little" really means. With each turn of the page, a very big idea emerges, with cleverly placed cutouts on each page that help to dispel the readers' perception of which ideas or images are important. A small candle flame on one page turns into a beacon from a lighthouse on the following page and the tiny goldfish illustrated is later shown to be the only one brave enough to swim against the tide. Page by page, scene by scene, "little" is shown to be anything but. Recommended for ages 3-7.
