This is a beautiful story. It's a profound story, and worth reading for everyone. The words are concise and the art deep. The write-up says it's "designed," not illustrated, and that is a perfect way to express it. This book was created, not written.

More like a babies picture book. It was definitely not what I expected. ( )

Not a good children's book ( what were they thinking ? ~ they weren't , other than get the name ' Brian Greene ' on the cover ) ( )

Gorgeous photos. Story concept is engaging and shares good science (more at author's note). I found the language itself to be somehow awkward & flat. And I found the 'board' pages distracting. Nobody in my family can figure out why it isn't simply on good quality picture-book paper. ( )

Can be read in almost no time at all. A creative and pleasing retelling with an educational component as well. ( )
