Space matters, spaces matter. This is a fun book about perspective. Spaces make sentences, they help you to see the whole picture, they keep pudding from tasting like pickles. The text is simple and easy to follow when paired with the illustrations. The illustrations are mixed media with clean lines and bright colors. Without the illustrations, the text wouldn’t make sense at all. They are critical to the story. The premise of this book is a good one, but the concept will be lost on the youngest of readers. Recommended for readers 4 and up.
