As we patiently waited in line to have Peter H. Reynolds sign our books a few weeks back, we started chatting with a very nice mom who was also waiting in line. Soon the conversation moved to great books we had shared with our children, and she mentioned a couple by David Wiesner which I will be featuring this week.
Sector 7 is unique in that it has no words. The story is told completely by the amazing illustrations. The book has a magical feel to it and immediately captured our daughter’s interest . A young boy who is visiting the Empire State Building has an adventure beyond his expectations when he is befriended by a cloud and taken to Sector 7 which is home to clouds. It seems the clouds want to express themselves by changing their respective forms from the traditional white and fluffy variety. With creativity and artistic flair, the boy helps the clouds realize their dream. This one is awesome!
