A tender, funny tale celebrating all forms of love from
award-winning and bestselling author-illustrator duo Mac Barnett

that," his grandmother says, and so the boy goes out into the world
to find out. But while each person he meets-the fisherman, the

quite right. Could love really be a fish, or applause, or the
night? Or could it actually be something much closer to home? A

grandmother is an essential part of this story. Grandmothers
everywhere will appreciate what this book says about their wisdom
and affection. A BOOK ABOUT FINDING YOURSELF: The boy's journey
takes him to many different people, whose descriptions of what love
means to them is very much about how they see themselves and their
lives. A GREAT READ-ALOUD: The engaging text is full of surprises
and the distinctive voice of the narrator invites audiences to
respond. STAR TALENT: Mac Barnett is a New York Times bestselling
author and Carson Ellis is a Caldecott Honor-winner and illustrator
