If you look closely, you will find that the world is bursting, swelling, budding, and ripening with round things awaiting discovery—like eggs about to hatch, sunflowers stretching toward the sun, or planets slowly spinning together for billions of years.

Whimsical and imaginative, this poetic ode to all that is round and full of wonder by the Newbery Honor–winning author and poet Joyce Sidman, with illustrations by the two-time New York Best Illustrated Book award recipient Taeeun Yoo, inspires curiosity and wonder for this (round) little earth we call home.

 

Praise for Round

"A round of applause for this one." - Publishers Weekly

". . .Thought-provoking and lyrical ode to nature. . ." - Horn Book 

"...a captivating homage to the many round things found in nature and in the world around us...from the fleeting (bubbles) to the enduring (a full moon) to the personal ("I can be round too…in a circle of friends with no one left out."). A lovely read-aloud to share in a story circle or in preparation for a nature walk and a perfect choice to curl up with one-on-one." - School Library Journal

"A serene invitation to see and to think about both shape and concept." - Kirkus

"Each carefully written line of text shows readers how the mundane can become magical if you look closely... All of this elegant simplicity springs from the page through Yoo’s mixed-media artwork, so rich in subtle detail that children will always find one more thing to look at." - Booklist
