The Watertower
A Book by Gary Grew, Illustrated by Steven Woolman
A wonderful example of a picture book where the illustrations add to the story and mystery of the watertower. The closer you look at the illustrations, the more you see. The story leaves you with so many questions and sparks the imagination. What lurks in the waters of the watertower?

The Tainted Cup
