Ramstein, Anne-Margot

Safe inside its shell, a baby bird prepares to brave the world. A spelunker descends into a wide and glittering cavern while fellow explorers cluster around a crack in the earth. Fire-red ants march busily around their anthill, oblivious of a hungry anteater waiting above. Smart and stylish, this oversize art book takes a unique approach to the concept of inside and outside, offering clever and unexpected examples that will delight readers and spark conversations about context and perspective.

"Everyone knows that a tiny acorn grows into a mighty oak and a caterpillar becomes a butterfly. But in this ... volume, it's also true that a cow can result in both a bottle of milk and a painting of a cow, and an ape in a jungle may become an urban King Kong. No words are necessary in this ... humorous book, in which every turn of the page offers a surprise."--Back cover.
