The shape of it
One universe, several ways in.
Your is Jon Klassen's spare, design-led board-book franchise for babies and toddlers, built around quiet ownership and imaginative naming: your farm, your forest, your island and your truck. The books are unusually calm for very early concept books, with muted artwork, minimal language and a strong sense that the child is being invited into a small world rather than shouted at with bright labels. The franchise currently contains the Your Places series and the beginning of a Your Things strand.
A calm, beautifully designed board-book franchise for babies and toddlers about places, things, ownership and quiet imaginative play.
