Infinity and Me (Carolrhoda Picture Books)
Read Paul Hankin's review here. I especially like the way this book captures a child's wondering about the world. In this case it is the concept of infinity. Oftentimes children ponder the many mysteries of their world as it unfolds around them, and Infinity and Me offers an opportunity for family or classroom discussions.
