Follow unexpected possibilities on fanciful and humorous journeys, powered by the limitlessness of the imagination and the openness of the human spirit. SUPPOSING I looked in the mirror one day and saw someone who wasnt me at allSUPPOSING I sailed around the world and when I was a mile from my hometown, I just turned the boat and sailed round again the other waySUPPOSING... Supposing leads to pondering a chain of hypothetical events that play with the way that things are, daring to imagine a world beyond the laws of physics and unbeholden to societal conventions. Each sentence may start with the same word SUPPOSING, but its impossible to predict where the zany musings will lead! Alastair Reids text, still as delightful and fresh as it was in 1960, is accompanied by new, dazzlingly vibrant illustrations from JooHee Yoon.
