THIS unusual and rather beautiful book is a journey in photographs of a child’s walk in the park. Each element is vividly pictured: the zebra crossing, wild flowers by the fence, a cloudy sky, a friendly dog, ripples in a puddle and so on. The pictures are so evocative that a pre-schooler would enjoy looking at them alone as well as listening to the simple text.
