NOTES

Read by Laura Fott, Eli Sebastian, Galen Burton, Sebastian D'Amico

The creator of Home turns a droll eye to the natural world with a playful invented language. Du iz tak? What is that? As a tiny shoot unfurls, two damselflies peer at it in wonder. When the plant grows taller and sprouts leaves, some young beetles arrive to gander, and soon-with the help of a pill bug named Icky-they wrangle a ladder and build a tree fort. But this is the wild world, after all, and something horrible is waiting to swoop down-booby voobeck!-only to be carried off in turn. Su! With exquisitely detailed illustrations and tragicomic flair, Carson Ellis invites readers to imagine the dramatic possibilities to be found in even the humblest backyard. Su! CARSON ELLIS is the author and illustrator of the bestselling picture books Home and Du Iz Tak?, a Caldecott Honor book and the recipient of an E.B. White Read Aloud Award. She lives on a farm with her family in Oregon
