There’s always a great discussion hiding in every #picturebook . Whole discussion about what sensitive means, how to judge what is “normal” & what is more than? Then he pulled out a dictionary, of his own accord, because he was curious. #Picturebook for the win!(2/2)

This is fabulous. I’ve never seen picture books structure explained and illustrated so clearly.
