A giant red triangle-shaped boy wanders through a world of regularly proportioned human beings, desperate to fit in. Disconsolate, he strikes out in search of advice from other large bodies: the ocean, the sun, and, rewardingly, the moon. Illustrated in traffic-light colors applied by what resembles woodblocks, this tidy parable about being oneself comes in a suitably big-and-tall trim size.
