PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Emily's first-person narrative draws on nature to present an uplifting vision of the beauty that lies within each person. Taking the title as a repeated refrain, simple rhyming lines highlight the positive characteristics of a tiger, river, swallow, oak tree, and much more: "In you I see.../ a daffodil// A yellow burst of spring/ That fills my day with happiness/ And brightens everything." Howard's digitally rendered impressionistic accompaniments feature the faceless silhouettes of two figures—one tall, one small—experiencing the natural world, from the brilliant orange of an oak tree to pink coral in an azure ocean. A final spread depicts individual internality literally, showing figures colored in by all they've seen and visually echoing the book's cheerful conclusion: "There's much to see in everyone./ All you need to do is look!" Ages 3–5.
