What if you... / encountered another perspective? / Discovered another world? / Met another you? / What might you do?
In this wordless picture book, a little girl wakes up when a cat that looks just like her own comes through a portal in her bedroom wall... and steals her cat's toy mouse! As the girl and her pet follow behind, she discovers a strange and and magical place full of upside-down rules, bright colors and shapes, and a room full of children playing, each with a double. What will she do when she meets her own twin? In his eagerly anticipated debut as author-illustrator, Caldecott and Coretta Scott King honoree Christian Robinson brings young readers on a playful, imaginative journey into another world.
"Simple geometric shapes and expanses of empty space make the spreads easy to consider, and Robinson nails the pacing, using each page turn for a comic or conceptual beat. Almost all children wonder whether there are others exactly like them somewhere out in the universe, doing the same thing at exactly the same time.... He also creates a speculative world with its own logic, and an adventure that will both puzzle and amuse." — Publishers Weekly
