The Hello, Goodbye Window by Norton Juster, illustrated byChris Raschka, is a sweet story about a child and her grandparents, and one of her memorable visits with them, focusing on their kitchen window. "Nanna and Poppy live in a big house in the middle of town. There's a brick path that goes to the back porch, but before you get there you pass right by the kitchen window. That's the Hello, Goodbye Window. It looks like a regular window but it's not." The window remains central to the granddaughter's description of her time with her grandparents. In the morning, she and her grandparents look at the garden, check out the weather and greet the day. The day includes biking, gardening and playing with the hose. When the sun sets the window is a reflecting mirror. At night, the lights are turned off and one can look at the stars through the window. The window can also be used for hide & seek and making funny faces, plus waving hello or goodbye. "Nanna says it's a magic window and anyone can come by when you least expect it." The child then goes on to imagine the Queen of England and T-Rex stopping by. Stories, music and learning a postive attitude all occur with the grandparents. Love, family, and being a part of something magical are all themes well described by Juster in this effective, evocative tale of inter-generational relationships. The illustrations reflect the magical, dreamy nature of the story and appear to be created by a child. This style is just not my cup of tea, since I prefer a much more realistic representation of people. In particular the pictures of Poppy show him with an odd shaped head, at times showing a very small top of his head, as on the cover, and at times having a nose that dominates his entire face. The heads of the girl's parents are also huge. I found such details to distract me from the story, which I like. I admire the artistry of the technique making these illustrations look childlike, but found it to take away from the overall effect of the story for me. The illustrations are memorable in depicting the grandparents and parents as multi-racial couples, a fact not mentioned in the story. For ages K to 3, grandparents, interracial relationships, imagination, family, love, magic, and fans of Norton Juster and Chris Raschka.
