What's out your window? 

Can you see trees

Falling down fences

Rolling hills

And cattle grazing?

Can you see skyscrapers

Towering structures

Busy streets

And people scurrying?

Can you see a backyard

With a cubby House

A dog chasing butterflies

And clothes on the line?

Can you see a bike track

A park with a lake

Swings, a climbing frame

And a slippery slide?

About the book by Jeannie Baker

Inspiration for this global project has come from  delightful picture book Window by author/ illustrator Jeannie Baker about the nature and pace of environmental change caused by people. The story is presented through a series of intricate collages, looking out through a window over a period of 24 years.

Window was first published in 1991. In 1992 it won the Australian Children’s Book Council Picture Book of the Year Award; the Young Australian’s Best Book Award for Picture Books; was shortlisted for the Kate Greenaway Medal in the UK and also was nominated Notable Book in the Field of Social Sciences in the USA.
