Description
A powerful poetry picture book about the wonder and possibility contained in a single word: let. Suppose there was a book full only of the word let . . . Adapted from a poem called "Book of Genesis" by the award-winning poet Kei Miller and beautifully imagined and illustrated by Diana Ejaita, this provocative and hopeful picture book is an ode to the power of words and of books--of seeing oneself and being seen--and to a world of wonder and possibility.
