Translation of : Avant, après.
"Everyone knows that a tiny acorn grows into a mighty oak and a caterpillar becomes a butterfly. But in this clever, visually enchanting volume, it's also true that a cow can result in both a bottle of milk and a painting of a cow, and an ape in a jungle may become an urban King Kong. Just as day turns into night and back again, a many-tiered cake is both created and eaten down to a single piece. With simple, graphic illustrations sure to appeal to even the youngest of children, this beautiful rumination on the passage of time will please the most discerning adult readers, too" -- from Amazon.

Chicken or Egg submitted by crankycrack on August 18, 2015, 9:21pm A well illustrated attempt grasping at the nature of change.

Well illustrated, wordless, deep submitted by EllieN-W on August 30, 2015, 11:39pm Very nicely done with no words. Worked on many different levels for many different ages. I did find a few scientific inaccuracies in it - but we were willing to let that go because aside from a few of those, it was really well done.
