Collaboration playfully explores the various ways we work and play with one another and the world around us. Dancing between poetry and narrative, the story rhythmically demonstrates how collaboration shapes our lives. Designed so that parents and children can discuss how the words and watercolor illustrations come together to conjure each idea, and how each image is "both the sum of its parts and a new thing entirely." Bilingual edition.

Colaboración alegremente explora las diversas maneras en que trabajamos y jugamos el uno con el otro y con el mundo que nos rodea. Bailando entre la poesía y la narrativa, el cuento explora rítmicamente las formas infinitas que la colaboración moldea a nuestras vidas.. Está diseñado para que los padres y los niños puedan discutir cómo las palabras y las ilustraciones de acuarela se unen para evocar cada idea, cada imagen es "tanto la suma de sus partes y una completamente nueva cosa." Edición bilingüe.
