Title: Sector 7
Author/Illustrator: David Wiesner
Age: 7-12
Award: Caldecott Honor Book
In this wordless adventure, a boy who likes to draw attends
a class field trip to the Empire
State Building.
While atop the skyscraper, the boy is befriended by a mischievous cloud, who
takes him to the Cloud
Dispatch Center
for Sector 7. There, the clouds, bored with their everyday appearances, ask the
young artist to design some new shapes for them. He obliges, setting off an
extraordinary and touching visual adventure. The perspective is often from a
low angle, as a child sees the world. Many pictures are grandly panoramic and
full of intriguing details
