Descrição da editora
Let's Do Everything and Nothing is a lush and lyrical picture book from Julia Kuo celebrating special moments—big and small—shared with a child.
Will you climb a hill with me?
Dive into a lake with me?
Reach the starry sky with me,
and watch the clouds parade?
Love can feel as vast as a sky full of breathtaking clouds or as gentle as a sparkling, starlit night. It can scale the tallest mountains and reach the deepest depths of the sea.
Standing side by side with someone you love, the unimaginable can seem achievable.
But not every magical moment is extraordinary. Simply being together is the best journey of all.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Togetherness is at the heart of this serene book by Kuo, making her solo debut. Framed by a series of single-sentence invitations ("Will you climb a hill with me?") and stated plans ("We'll follow trails on summer nights"), the book pictures an adult and child, cued as of Taiwanese heritage, together experiencing the mundane and the adventurous. Kuo's distinctive digital illustrations, both delicate and bold, pop off the page, relying on a rich palette of coral, cornflower blue, and marigold hues. At first composed of lofty scenes that see the pair ascending a snowy summit and swimming among stingray-filled ocean depths, the story eventually turns domestic, foregrounding bath time and snacks including tea, oranges, and a bag of shrimp chips. As the companions "watch the shadows stretch," and comfortably "do everything and nothing," they enjoy each other's company with a resounding and loving intimacy. Ages 3–6.
