When I first started reading this book, I was a little annoyed by the way it was written. Coming from the view of the five year old, the book is written how he would say the words. At first it was hard to get used to, and then after about 20 pages I did not even notice it anymore.

It is amazing how you notice the world differently after hearing it described from a 5 year old who has never seen it before. I found myself paying more attention to details after about halfway through the book. How often we pass up the beauty of the world that we live in, just because we "see it every day." I am so thankful to little Jack for reminding me to stop and notice the details, and literally smell the flowers.
