The first spread is the goodbye, Jochebed kneeling in the reeds to push the basket out while Miriam says she will follow and see where he goes. The second is the rescue, the Pharaoh's daughter lifting him out among the water lilies and promising to keep him safe, with Miriam listening from the rushes. The third moves fast and happily, Miriam offering to fetch someone to care for him, the handover on the palace steps where he is given his name, and the two of them walking home in delight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwenty two square board pages, 145 mm on a side, thick enough for hands that are still learning to turn one page at a time.
