It's not what you look at, it's what you see! Take a journey through New York City as it might be seen by a child through a camera lens.
Shapes, colors, patterns, and people are everywhere, and things look different depending on how you look at them -- and who is doing the looking. In this playful ode to photography and point of view, a poetic story posits how one young girl might capture moments of insight, community, and art in her beloved hometown, New York City. With the popularity of camera phones, photo-journaling, and photo-posting sites, this fictional exploration of photography as one young girl's form of self-expression is guaranteed to appeal to budding photographers.Author Biography
