Tiny WorldsTiny Worlds

Grandma's house isn't that big, but there's plenty of room for a tiny world ... When a young boy visits his grandmother's house, he doesn't just see scraps of ribbon lying around, mushrooms clustered behind a log in the forest, or lonely pools hiding along the beach. He sees tiny worlds, where pie tins become playgrounds, ants become farmers, and ponds and puddles teem with life waiting to be found. Tiny worlds are full of whimsy and imagination, but there is one problem: he seems to be the only one who sees them. While at first Grandma keeps trying to draw him out, eventually she realizes that even tiny worlds are big enough to share. Brittany Cicchese's touching story and warm illustrations celebrate the connection between a child and grandparent and encourage readers to appreciate the extraordinary tiny worlds all around us."--Page 2 of cover.
