Tiny, Perfect Things displays the essence of understanding the world around us. This book dives deeper into finding beauty in the small things as it takes you along the journey of a young girl and her grandpa. From the perspective of the young girl you are able to see just how perfect the world truly is.
“See all the crows up in this tree? I
watch them and they watch me.“
I think this book would be well utilized in the classroom by focusing on the community and environment the students live in. A worksheet or even a blank piece of paper could be used to allow students to write about the tiny, perfect things around them or draw them as well. This could help build a sense of community in the classroom and allow students to pinpoint positive things in their surroundings.
This book uses perspective quite well to tell the story of a young child and what seems to be her grandparent. The artist shows things from the perspective of all the “tiny, perfect things“ they see on their walk. With the birds in the trees we get to see the main characters from the view of the tree. Or as the leaves fall we get to see them falling in front of the child and grandparent. This book also uses color to highlight nature very well.
What would you be like....with this?
