Inch by Inch
<p><strong>Caldecott Honor Book * </strong><strong><em>New York Times </em></strong><strong>Best Illustrated Book</strong></p><p>This favorite classic picture book introduces children to a winning, winsome inchworm who can measure anything under the sun, from a robin’s tail to a toucan’s beak. When a hungry nightingale threatens to eat him for breakfast unless he can measure her song, the inchworm will have to cleverly solve the dilemma. This is a whimsical and sweet picture book that asks, “Can a song be measured?â€</p><p>“The lovely colors, the sharp definition of cutouts against white space, the rhythm of the composition, and the simplicity of the whole make a handsome and appropriate book to give pleasure to little children and their elders.†<em>—</em><em>The Horn Book</em></p>
