It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas . . . and the more you look, the more you see.Using everything from dog biscuits and candy canes to gloves and starfish, Joan Steiner has created an entrancing three-dimensional world for puzzlers of all ages to pore over. This long-awaited follow-up to the bestselling Look-Alikes and Look-Alikes Jr. has nine more original, breathtaking images, including a cathedral, nutcracker ballet, Santa's workshop, and cozy Grandma's kitchen scene. For added value, the book includes instructions on how to create your own Look-Alikes Christmas decorations, as well as a question and answer session with Joan Steiner, including color photos from her studio.
作者简介 Joan Steiner is a graduate of Barnard College and a self-taught artist. Her two previous Look-Alikes books have sold more than one million copies and been published in sixteen countries around the world. Ms. Steiner is the recipient of numerous art and design awards, including a Society of Illustrators Award and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship.

编辑推荐 From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 4-Steiner continues her popular series in which simple verses challenge readers to identify thousands of everyday objects on oversized spreads. What is unique and delightful is that the everyday objects are playing new roles in these photographed vignettes: a loaf of bread is a tunnel, long human hair is a curtain, kidney beans are fireplace bricks, a bar of soap is a footstool. The nine assemblages include scenes from The Nutcracker, grandma's kitchen, and New Year's Eve. Steiner also offers instructions for making ornaments and edible treats, and an interview in which she answers such questions as, "What is the most unusual thing you've ever used?" (Deer vertebrae; a hand grenade). In both presentation and delivery, this is clever, ingenious, and fun both for readers and nonreaders, and for sharing or for browsing alone.-M. W.
