Higher! Higher!

The sky's no limit in a witty picture book about a child on a swing and the wonders of the imagination. One child. One swing. An obliging dad. The inevitable plea to go "Higher Higher " Add Leslie Patricelli's wildly expressive illustrations, and an everyday pastime reaches new heights of humor and whimsy. How high can it go? Higher than a giraffe? Taller than a mountain? Is Earth the final frontier? The creator of a popular series of board books rises to the occasion with an ingenious picture book of very few words that expresses the giddy glee of being pushed in a swing.
