i discovered journey on npr's list of picture books that make us wish we were a kid again. journey is a beautiful picture book of a little bored girl that uses a magic crayon that goes on a journey and ends up discovering a friend. there is no text but none needed. i shared it with a second grade class i subbed with and they became excited with each picture and even made predictions about what was going to happen next. one student even said it reminded them of harold and the purple crayon! npr made the same connection! a truly beautiful book, be sure to check it out! i will be adding it to my book collection as well.
here is a sneak peak:
