(3) K-3 Jacoby takes the abstract concept of time and presents it as an extended riddle: "the more you try to hold it...the better it hides." Watercolor, NuPastel, and mixed-media illustrations lend a softness to the narrative and combine minute details, such as facial expressions, with large expanses of bustling city scenes, sky, water, etc. The lyrical, contemplative text lends itself to one-on-one sharing.
