A playful and thought-provoking picture book about desire, choice, and the longing for everything.
—
In Wanting So Much, each page brings a new question: Why are we given one thing when we want another? A book when we want toys. The sky when we want blue. A kiss when we want something more.
Through a rhythmic chain of wishes that grows bigger and bolder, the story explores the restless nature of desire and the boundless imagination of childhood. What begins as a simple complaint becomes a philosophical and playful reflection on choice, possibility, and the dream of having it all.
