Best Picture Books of the Year 2020
When the snow comes around,
No more are there sounds.
Without a sound, the snow blows in the air.
Without a sound, it lays on the ground.
The birds chirp, so quiet that we can’t hear,
Same the dogs—no bark, air is clear…
“A transcultural masterpiece based on a poem by a distinguished Chinese writer put into pictures bt a world-acclaimed illustrator (…) The work celebrates the Human love for Nature, and invites the readers to immerse themselves into their natural environment, to feel it and understand it. It is a brilliant combination between the voice of the poetic words and the silence of beautiful pictures”.
