What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

A picture book that celebrates community and creativity from acclaimed cut-paper artist and New York Times bestselling illustrator Nikki McClure This lyrical story from a beloved creator follows a family through one day and muses in the possibilities that one day holds–from enjoying treats at the bakery, to admiring handmade goods from local artisan shops, to observing the new construction in town. Illuminating themes of community, creativity, and collaboration, What Will These Hands Make? dares the reader to dream up everything they can be and all the ways they can leave their little corner of the world better than they found it. “This celebration of citizenry and craft is a poignant reminder of the objects and places that makers weave . . . The book’s appeal spans a wide range: younger readers will enjoy the seek-and-find aspect, and older readers may find inspiration in its vision of daily life and communal innovation.” –Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
