Tana Hoban's photographs have been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and in galleries around the world. She has won many gold medals and prizes for her work as a photographer and filmmaker. Her books for children are known and loved throughout the world.
Grade 1 Up-- This imaginative, wordless book of color photographs is a visual treat, offering witty and subtle sets of images for enriching the eyes of children and adults. The photographs are handsome in themselves, but the way in which they have been put together is often masterful. There is a sense of movement across many of the 14 pairs of photographs, leading readers' eyes from the picture on the right to the one on the left and up, looping through the book in an enjoyable way. The sets of images juxtaposed include objects, animals, and people reflected in mirrors, glass, metal, and water. A photograph of a bear reflected in water has the richness and texture of an abstract painting. An old apartment building reflected in panes of glass looks like a fantasy construction by Gaudi. There's more than a hint of mystery in the photographs--some pictures can't be identified, many are upside down or truncated. Yet it works well and intensifies the viewing experience. Hoban has included more examples of reflection than shadow, but readers will realize that a reflection is sometimes also a shadow. Close and repeated observation proves rewarding in this satisfying, intriguing book. --Marilyn Iarusso, New York Pub . Lib .
