Recess. A swing set. An
argument. A resolution! Michael Hall’s transformative Swing is
a celebration of friendship, joy, and kindness. Readers of all ages will look
forward to seeing how four unlikely friends navigate their differences. A surprising
and standout picture book from the acclaimed and bestselling creator of Red:
A Crayon’s Story and Perfect Square.
It’s recess! Four letters
(O, V, E, and L) race to the playground to claim the swings. In several pages
of recess banter and bullying, one letter is told it’s too round, one is from
the wrong end of the alphabet, and one is a vowel and therefore not welcome.
What does it take to save the day? Kindness . . . and a heavenly and joyful
swing. And what do the letters—friends now because of their shared
experience—spell when they finally come back to Earth? LOVE.
A story about
sharing, acceptance, and kindness, this transcendent and colorful picture book
will keep readers guessing while also introducing the letters of the alphabet. Swing
is for anyone who loves to hop on a swing and fly to the sky.
