Book Descriptions
for Shadows and Reflections by Tana Hoban
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
In a wordless book, striking color photographs challenge children to identify objects, buildings, people and animals by their shadows and reflections in puddles, windows, pavement, etc. Viewers may also be encouraged to make observations about the nature of shadows and reflections by comparing and contrasting Hoban's photographs. (Ages 4-7)

From the Publisher
"This imaginative, wordless book of color photographs is a visual treat, offering witty and subtle sets of images for enriching the eyes of children and adults....[A] satisfying, intriguing book."--School Library Journal.
Shadows and reflections are all around us -- under our feet, over our heads, directly in front of us. But only Tana Hoban can make us look at -- and see -- what is right before our eyes. She makes us look with our minds and hearts and imaginations -- and our surroundings are forever changed.
