This has to be my favorite picture book for 2012 so far. It's a graphic novel, it's a wordless story, it's a picture book. Filled with different methods of telling the story I would not find fault with just sitting and staring at the pictures while discovering more and more new things. I absolutely positively love it!

Thanks to HMH for providing a copy for review.
