Aki.
As Toshi and his grandmother walk along a river, through town, and more, Toshi gathers feathers, flowers, etc.; a spread following each scene asks readers to match Toshi's "treasures" with their sources. An appendix encourages readers to locate living creatures in the spreads and includes facts about the items. The oddly stylized humans in Aki's detailed drawings might dissuade young readers from the pleasing seek-and-find book.
