About this title

Synopsis

An inspiring journey into the art of paying attention, this story reveals the magic woven into everyday life and reminds readers of all ages that the extraordinary is always within reach.

“The miraculous is everywhere and in everything. Waiting for us to notice it. Waiting for us to appreciate it. Waiting for us to love it.” —An excerpt from Noticing

This is a story about noticing the little things, the grand big things, the imaginary, and sometimes, hidden things. It’s about embracing what’s possible and discovering that the extraordinary is everywhere, in everything—waiting to be known.

Written by New York Times bestselling author Kobi Yamada and illustrated by award-winning artist Elise Hurst, Noticing follows an accomplished painter and her young protégé as they explore what it means to slow down, observe with the heart, and use imagination to expand perspective. Rich, captivating illustrations filled with hidden wonders invite readers to look closer, revealing how, when we take time to notice the magic around us each day, we begin to understand the promise and potential within us all.

Be sure to discover the companion books in The Mentor Series, Trying and Caring.

Elise Hurst is an Australian fine artist, illustrator, and author, specializing in books for children. She recently illustrated The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman, and Girl on Wire by Lucy Estela, which was short-listed for the Children's Book Council of Australia 2019 Awards. She lives in a house full of books and paintings. From her studio, where black pens and oil paints spill across the desk, magical worlds leap into being. Like something out of Beatrix Potter or Narnia, her friends are rabbits and bears, lions and tigers--and they all have a story to share.
