When I’m Bigger
by Maria Dek

As we grow bigger, our dreams grow too!
When I Am Bigger encourages young readers to imagine themselves taking part in fun activities, such as choreographing 11 special dance moves, growing a garden with 20 vegetables, and finding 100 shooting stars in the night sky. Following her first counting book, When I Am Big, Maria Dek and her engaging, whimsical illustrations are back to celebrate more wonderful things to count!

"[A] picture book full of fantastical watercolor illustrations that’s designed to get 3- to 7-year-olds totting up their numbers."
The Wall Street Journal

"Three cheers for a counting book for big(ger) kids!...This 46-page picture book sets out to pleasantly challenge a slightly older reader, or the child who is ready to take on higher double-digits."
New York Journal of Books

"Delightful renderings of offbeat notions and quantities."
Kirkus Reviews
