Here Is a Book

A love letter to books, showing how many elements and people contribute to making something beautiful, from Caldecott honoree Elisha Cooper

In this poetic and beautifully illustrated ode to creativity and the process of making books, Caldecott honoree Elisha Cooper takes readers on a journey showing how words and art move from one person to another.

From writer to reader, and everyone who contributes in between: Here is a book, made with love.

★ “[A] winningly granular work...It’s a step-by-step representation of how a book comes into being, focused on how much depends on “teamwork, time, beauty, adventure, grit, inspiration, curiosity, action, structure, humor, wonder, and love.”
– Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
