About Twenty Questions

Reach for this book when you want to spark a conversation but do not want to lecture. It is the perfect choice for a child who feels restricted by right and wrong answers, or for a quiet evening when you want to peek inside your child's imagination. Through twenty whimsical and open-ended questions, author Mac Barnett and illustrator Christian Robinson transform the act of reading into an active, collaborative game. The book moves from the silly to the philosophical, asking children to decide which animal is the best at hide-and-seek or what a tiger is dreaming about. There is no plot to follow, only a series of prompts that celebrate curiosity and storytelling. It is an essential tool for building creative confidence in children ages 4 to 8, proving that their ideas are just as valuable as the words on the page.
