"A century and a half after Lewis Carroll plunged his Alice into a fantastical world through the looking-glass, South Korean fine artist and illustrator JiHyeon Lee offers a magnificent modern counterpart in her picture-book debut, Pool — a wordless masterpiece of space, scale, and silence converging to create an underwater world of wonder just beneath the reflective surface of ordinary life."

"Pool by JiHyeon Lee is a gorgeous fantasy. The wordless picture book takes readers, and its two protagonists, away from an overly crowded pool to a world far below where you can frolic with wondrous sea creatures big and small. The colored pencil and pastel drawings — engaging, playful and warm — will have you roving the pages for little treasures. Since Pool is Lee’s first book, I can’t wait to see what she creates next. (For ages 3 to 5)"
