Your island

This is your sun. It is coming up for you. This is your palm tree. It can go over by the sun. With a minimal tableau of familiar objects and a gentle rhythm suited for reading aloud, an island and all its items – a tent, a fire, a boat, a bird – are assembled, ending with bedtime as the sun goes down. This is an island for a young child to have whenever they want to go there. One in a trio of board books focussing on safe spaces, comfort and imagination, ‘Your Island’ signals both a departure for Jon Klassen and a story whose peculiar touches of whimsy stamp the book as iconically his.
