* "The second booklet is bound into the first one, and the third into the second. Each successive volume is smaller than the previous one, while the closing pages return to the original book’s size as well as its setting. First published in France, this intriguing picture book features a short, pleasing text illustrated with attractive digital images. Children will enjoy the clever concept, which seems headed toward infinity until the story’s ending brings the echoing narratives together in a single, satisfying conclusion. A simple idea artfully transformed into a memorable picture book."—Booklist, Starred Review "Bailly's illustrations and some unusual formatting take a seemingly ordinary outing in surprising directions in this import from France."—Kirkus Reviews
