Higher. Higheeeer! In the playtime, babies and very young children want to challenge themselves more and more and, in this play, they discover themselves, others, and the world around them. In ‘Higher or lower?’, a father and daughter play together poetically and sensitively. The lap is the element of affection and the trigger for play. The higher the girl climbs on her father’s lap, the further her imagination goes. But what happens when she gets off his lap? The delicate illustrations full of natural elements reveal the tenderness that exists between the characters.
