PICTURE BOOKS
(2) K-3 In this quietly engrossing wordless book, a boy dives into a pool--neatly swimming below a disagreeable mass of grownups bobbing about on inflatable tubes--and meets another young swimmer. Together, boy and girl discover a strange and beautiful underwater world of fantastic Shaun Tan–esque creatures. Colored-pencil and oil-pastel illustrations use color to contrast the two realities.
