"An average day can be just that: average. But it can also be extraordinary and full of surprises, if we're mindful of the world around us. In Days like this, we witness the peaks and valleys of everyday life through two different narrative voices. The tiniest detail or the most fleeting moment can look quite different, depending on your perspective."--Book jacket flap. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Epigraph: Even if the lights go out, even if someone says to me: 'No more'. I'll still be here. One can always watch. --Rainer Maria Rilke
The complete text of the book is printed on the first page, adorned only with a small bird perched on top of the "e" in "like." Following that, each double-page spread contains a nearly full-page illustration with a slender white air frame, showing the same scene from two different perspectives; one line of the poem is printed underneath, once on each side, in black on the verso and yellow-brown-green on the recto. On one side is a human perspective; the other side shows the point of view of a small animal, revealed on the final spread - a single illustration - to be a squirrel.
The illustrations are full-color and wonderfully detailed: ferns, acorns, trees, mushrooms, bird nests and bird houses and blooming trees.
Author's Note ("Factually speaking, squirrels have dichromatic vision...") ( )
