{"product_id":"why-the-face-9780714877198","title":"Why the Face?","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA hilarious guessing game of facial reactions created by the author of bestselling \u003ci\u003eThis Is Not A Book\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJean Jullien tickles the funnybone once again with a book of facial overreactions. Faces are presented first, allowing the reader to wager predictions of what may have prompted such an expression, before the dramatic answer is revealed. \u003ci\u003eWhy the face?\u003c\/i\u003e reads the text alongside an agitated boy with eyes and nose scrunched up. Pick up the full-page flap to reveal a whole mess of smelly items, from stinky socks to an oozing trash can, and the text, \u003ci\u003eWhoa, that stinks\u003c\/i\u003e. Jullien masterfully provides enough clues for the reader to piece together the narrative, including both predictable and surprising scenarios. Based on young children's natural fascination with faces, this book encourages readers to practice empathy and build emotional intelligence, with cleverly simplified and humorously satisfying vignettes. A brilliant addition to Phaidon's growing Jean Jullien board book library.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAges 2-4\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Board Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Phaidon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780714877198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.50w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/05\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2019 pg. 121\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/21\/2018 pg. 47\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jean Jullien","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36640657080476,"sku":"9780714877198","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_a801bc20-8181-47b8-a296-6e289bf90d0f.jpg?v=1603852529","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/why-the-face-9780714877198","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
