Looking Down -- Steve Jenkins

<p>In this wordless picture book, readers first see Earth as the astronauts do, as a small ball in the black universe. As the point of view moves gradually closer, we can see continents and oceans, then the East Coast of the United States, then a town (an imaginary one), until, finally, we are looking through a boy's magnifying glass at a ladybug. In his remarkable and detailed cut-paper illustrations, the artist takes us on an amazing journey from outer space to a young boy's front yard.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Steve Jenkins<br><b>Publisher:</b> Clarion Books<br><b>Published:</b> 05/19/2003<br><b>Pages:</b> 32<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.34lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.77h x 9.79w x 0.12d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780618310982<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 4-8<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>PW Notes and Reprints</i> 06/16/2003 pg. 74<br><i>Publishers Weekly</i> 06/16/2003
