They visit Sector 7, the Cloud Dispatch Center, where clouds receive their instructions about how they should be shaped and where they are to go. They become fast friends and the cloud takes the boy to on a trip up into the sky. While on the observation deck, he meets a curious character: a mischievous cloud. Sector 7 is the story of a young boy visiting the Empire State Building on a school field trip. I enjoy this book at least as much, if not more, than my girls. There are sea turtles with tiny cities growing on their shells.
What he finds in the photos is, quite simply, amazing. He digs it out of the sand and develops the film. I narrowed down my daughters’ favorites to two: Flotsam and Sector 7.įlotsam is a tale of a young boy who discovers an old camera while exploring the shore. I’d borrowed as many as I could find from the local library, because I didn’t know yet if they were worth the investment to purchase them. They both requested the books over and over. My 2-year-old would point out all the little details as we read. My 4-year-old would ask me to tell her the story, and then we’d flip through the book again and she’d tell me the story. I was afraid maybe the illustrations were too intricate to hold a preschooler’s and a toddler’s attention. I was a little nervous when I first saw them.
I put “read” in quotes because most of these books have little or no words.īut the pictures… well, the illustrations are breathtaking. I recently sat down with my daughters and “read” some of David Wiesner’s books to them.
