Neighbors

By Einat Tsarfati

Author/illustratorEinat Tsarfati's picture book The Neighbors is the story of a young girl envisioning a more exciting life that "celebrates both imaginative power and the way great imaginations sometimes miss what's closest to them" (Publishers Weekly, Starred Review).

As a young girl climbs the seven stories to her own (very boring ) apartment, she imagines what's behind each of the doors she passes. Does the door with all the locks belong to a family of thieves? Might the doorway with muddy footprints conceal a pet tiger?

Each spread reveals--in lush detail--the wilds of the girl's imagination, from a high-flying circus to an underwater world and everything in between. When the girl finally reaches her own apartment, she is greeted by her parents, who might have a secret even wilder than anything she could have imagined

"This book is one delightful, imaginative reveal after another, ending with a fabulous double-twist chuckle. The text is simple and elegant, supported by absolutely charming images, and it's icing on the cake that the illustrations are so internationally inclusive." --Booklist (Starred Review)
