AUTHOR Klassen, Jon; Klassen, Jon
PUBLISHER Candlewick Press (MA) (02/04/2025)
PRODUCT TYPE Hardcover (Board Books)

Description
"Lulling rhythms, interactive language, and repeating words soothe and amuse, giving readers a place to envision themselves and return to whenever they like." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)

From the incomparable Jon Klassen, one in a trio of companion board books for the youngest of children

This is your sun.
It is coming up for you.

These are your trees.
They can go over by the sun.

With a minimal tableau of familiar objects and a gentle rhythm suited for reading aloud, a forest and all its items--a cabin, some rocks, a (nice) forest ghost, a stream, a bridge--are assembled, ending with bedtime as the sun goes down. This is a forest for a young child to have whenever they want to go there. One of a trio of board books focusing on safe spaces, comfort, and imagination, Your Forest signals both a departure for Jon Klassen and a story whose peculiar touches of whimsy stamp the book as iconically his.
