From the bestselling creator Jon Klassen, Your Forest is one in a trio of companion board books for the youngest of children.

This is your sun. It is coming up for you.

These are your trees. They can go over by the sun.

With a minimal tableau of familiar objects and a gentle rhythm suited for reading aloud, a forest and all its items – a cabin, some rocks, a (nice) forest ghost, a stream, a bridge – are assembled, ending with bedtime as the sun goes down. This is a forest for a young child to have whenever they want to go there. One of a trio of board books focussing on safe spaces, comfort and imagination, Your Forest signals both a departure for Jon Klassen and a story whose peculiar touches of whimsy stamp the book as iconically his.
