{"product_id":"nancy-knowsisbn-9781770494824","title":"Nancy Knows","description":"Nancy knows she's forgotten something. Something important. When she tries to remember, she thinks of all kinds of other things instead. She remembers things she knows and things she doesn't quite know. She remembers things one way, then another. Sometimes she remembers with her ears or her stomach or even her heart. But Nancy knows she's still forgetting something. It's only when Nancy stops thinking altogether that she finally remembers the very important thing she's forgotten. Nancy Knows is the charming story of an elephant who remember lots of things, except the very thing she is trying to remember. Each spread of this whimsical, arresting picture book features fantastic miniature paper sculptures within expressive outlines of a puzzled pachyderm. It's a book not to be forgotten.\u003cb\u003eSELECTION - \u003ci\u003eNational Post\u003c\/i\u003e Best Books for Kids, 2014\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSELECTION - \u003ci\u003eHuffington Post\u003c\/i\u003e Best Picture Books, 2014\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSELECTION - PBS Best Picture Books, 2014\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePRAISE FOR \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNancy Knows\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The slight tale is charming, but it is merely the vehicle for a truly beautiful and unique visual tour de force . . .
