Items related to Here a Face, There a Face
Author/photographer Arlene Alda has produced yet another brilliantly simple rhyming safari — this time in search of faces in unusual places. These faces are found on buildings, in trees, mailboxes, and fountains. Coy, funny, grumpy, comical, or sad, they are almost anywhere a child’s imagination wants to go. Whimsical text heightens the search and helps us find the unusual characters who are quietly gathered all around us. Alda’s unique through-the-lens perceptions will launch young children on a visual adventure that just might be hard to return from.
The easy-to-read text and trampe d’oeil photos make Here a Face, There a Face perfect for the young or young at heart.
This is Arlene Alda’s third, and perhaps her most clever photographic essay. Look for The Book of ZZZs and Did You Say Pears?

From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 3—A simple rhyming text leads children from page to page and photo to photo in the discovery of "faces" in ordinary objects. Each page has a short line of the verse and a color photograph of a manmade or natural object with facial characteristics. The photographs are clearly focused and cropped so that viewers can zoom in on the countenance. The subjects include buildings, a kitchen pot, a tree, mailboxes, and more. Youngsters will delight in finding the eyes, noses, and mouths. Some faces are more challenging to see than others, but all will encourage children to find faces even beyond the book's pages. With a format similar to Tana Hoban's books, this title will appeal to the same audience.—Carolyn Janssen, Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, OH
