Shadow

Lee, S. (2010). Shadow. San Francisco: Chronicle Books.
Award: Notable Book


This is a wordless picture book. The story is told from one page to the mirror image on the opposite page of a little girl who is in a closet and clicks the light on and off to create shadows. As the story evolves the shadows take over the pretend situation until the little girl’s mother calls her to dinner. Illustrations are engaging and create a story within a story. Captivating illustrations draw the reader in, so that any age could benefit from this book to create a text or as a discussion of imagination.
