Seven small books about a big question
Look closer. Live deeper.
Poetic picture books for readers of every age. Each one starts with a single question about how we look, think, feel and move through the world.
The idea
Quality isn’t a rule. It’s a way of paying attention.
Inspired by Robert Pirsig’s long inquiry into quality, these seven short books invite readers of all ages to be curious about the ordinary: what we notice, what we believe, what we make, and what we can let go of.
Poem and painting share every page. Each book stands on its own, so there is no right place to begin.
