Johnson's picture books about a bear modeled after Henry David Thoreau, the author takes another short piece from Walden to riff on, this one about how Thoreau built his cabin. In the picture book, the bear named Henry builds a small cabin in the wilderness, using borrowed or inexpensively purchased materials. One by one, his neighbors stop by to tell him that his cabin doesn't have enough room, doesn't have enough light, doesn't have the space for dancing. Henry assures each of them that his cabin is "bigger than it looks," and he shows each of the questioning neighbors and friends where he will eat (outdoors), where he will read (outdoors) and where he will dance (outdoors).

Hardcover. NY, Philomel Books, 1st, 2015, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Hardcover in pictorial boards. A TIME Magazine Top 10 Children's Book of 2015! Ducks growing out of bananas? A mouse catching a cat? What's wrong with this book from the creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar? Yes, there is something strange, something funny and even downright preposterous on every page of this book. But its not a mistake - its nonsense! And its also surrealism. Nonsense lies at the heart of many beloved nursery rhymes. Children readily accept odd statements like the cow jumped over the moon and the dish ran away with the spoon. This fanciful bending of reality is also basic to surrealism. In this book, nonsense and surrealism combine to spark creativity and imagination. No dust jacket, clean copy.
