Description

A child, brave and curious about the world, flies high over the mountains, goes out on a limb, and dives into the deep. From here, he can see eye to eye with majestic and curious creatures, from the miniature to the enormous, the everyday to the fantastic.   From one of Australia's favorite picture book creators comes a remarkable look at the connection between the animals that inhabit our Earth--even the human ones. Eye to Eye will give you an amazing new perspective on the world
