Welcome to Litsy!

Birthday book haul 😍 gifts from my brother and lovely @Sarah83

This MF picture book is a wordless Caldecott award winner. It is about a determined young girl who draws a magic door in her room and escaped to her own fantasy land. Is she safe? Having fun? You‘ll have to see for yourself ;) This book would be a great RT because it allows the students to created their own scripts based off of the images! #ucflae3414su20

Journey is a Caldecott honor F wordless picture book by Aaron Becker. This book follows a young girl and her “journey” through a fantasy land. I believe this book would be great for a RT and for my students to create a script because there are no words in this book. Students can take turns being the narrators and the little girl main character.

Journey by Aaron Becker is a F book that has won a Caldecott. It shows the journey of Josephine creating a magic world with just a red marker. What‘s interesting about this hook is that it does not contain words but just beautiful images our her journey. I think this would be great for a LC because students could share the imagination with one another on what they think is happening in the story. #ucflae3414f19

This gorgeous picture book is on my to-buy list for this illustration alone! And it fits today's #jubilantjuly #journey theme perfectly. 😊

Checked this out of the Elkin library. I've probably picked it up in Barnes & Noble a dozen times. It was great to finally get all the way through. There are no words, just a cool fantasy story told with pictures and it's the first book in a trilogy! My son liked it too!

Absolutely gorgeous. Reminded me of a cross between "Coraline" and that old cartoon Chalk Zone. Stunning illustrations -- you don't need words to be amazed by this story, and you don't need my words to convince you. 5/5 stars

I absolutely love reading this wordless picture book trilogy by Aaron Becker with my kids. This is the first book, Journey. The books are filled with great art and small details that add all kinds of layers to the stories.

A beautiful and wonderful wordless picture book. It tells the story of a little girl with her trusty red crayon. With it she can go on a wonderful adventure and see things not seen in our world, such as flying steam ships. Excellently planned and illustrated.

Beautiful books and an awesome author! I met him at the RI Festival of Children's Books & Authors. I'm not a children's librarian anymore but I happily browse those books!

The first in a wonderful wordless picture book series, I fell in love with Journey and am recommending this to children and adults alike. #librarian #KBReads #childrensbook

Such a wonderful journey for the reader! First in a trilogy. Brought back memories of Harold.
