Bigger

This is the type of book that when you read it, not just the first time but every time after it gives you the chills. Bigger is truly a magical book that most young (toddler/preschooler) boys are almost begging for and don't even know it. Since my son (now 4) was first able to speak he only wanted to be bigger and the questions followed and continue to follow; How do I get bigger? I'm much bigger than when I was a baby right? Im bigger than _____, right? I've heard it from my son and all of his friends as well. Being "bigger" is such a "boy thing" and this book could not be more perfect in not only addressing getting bigger but showing them how "big" they were at each stage of their life. The Illustrations are outstanding, the text is filled with imaginative, magical, happy feelings that will open up a new world to your little boy. Bigger was so obviously written with a tremendous amount of care, appreciation and purpose with a goal of instilling confidence in boys which is so very important especially in this young age group. This is such a beautiful book, it is not to be missed. My son absolutely loves this book and his face lights up with delight each time I read it to him, I only wish every other boy also gets the opportunity to enjoy bigger!! BUY IT NOW!

This is a sweet, wonderful book for reading with an older toddler or preschooler, especially at the end of a day that may have been filled with struggles. I love the line "as my world grew bigger, I was big enough to hold it all." Kirk is extremely talented and we own many of his books, but this is my personal favorite, right up there with HUSH, LITTLE ALIEN.

From his mother's womb, this is a tale about how a boy continues to grow with every encounter with the world at large. The way he gets encouragement from the people he meets as he makes his transition to big clothes. It's all about growing, new experiences and new people. Great full-page illustrations supplement the tale of growth.
