Abstract

This article discusses three children's books: "Are You Big?" by Mo Willems, "Later, When I'm Big" by Bette Westera, and "Yours From the Tower" by Sally Nicholls. "Are You Big?" explores the concept of relative size through colorful illustrations and comparisons of various objects. "Later, When I'm Big" follows a small girl who imagines herself performing daring feats when she grows up, and offers consolation for young children who aspire to achieve their potential. "Yours From the Tower" is a historical novel set in 19th century Britain, focusing on the lives of three young women as they navigate social class and marriage. [Extracted from the article]
