Weslandia Review: Great story, great illustrations - I love this book. The illustrations are fantastic and the story is very inspiring about leaning to use you inagination, be inventive, and to ignore naysayers. Review: The strange and clever story of a strange and clever boy - This is an odd book, the story of a boy who, as a summer project, creates his own civilization. He bases his civilization on the cultivation and use of a single crop, a plant of mysterious origin and almost miraculous versatility. He starts the summer as a nerdy and unpopular boy and ends it with many of his schoolmates (and former tormenters) drawn into his society. The idea is intriguing and the art is engaging. I call the book "odd" because, while it's clearly a children's book, it isn't written in a style that would obviously appeal to children. After I read through it I thought, "cute, but my kids won't care for it." I thought that the lack of dialog and the general absence of a traditional story-line would leave them cold. Wrong, big time. They love it. They're four and six, and they're just fascinated by the story and the pictures. Sometimes kids are more patiently thoughtful than I give them credit for. This book is thought-provoking for them and frequently requested. Excellent book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #62,075 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #678 in Children's Self-Esteem Books #2,032 in Children's Friendship Books #3,895 in Children's Literature (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (474) | | Dimensions | 10.71 x 0.16 x 9.25 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | Grade level | Preschool - 3 | | ISBN-10 | 0763610526 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0763610524 | | Item Weight | 7 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 40 pages | | Publication date | August 1, 2002 | | Publisher | Candlewick | | Reading age | 3 - 10 years, from customers | ## Images ![Weslandia - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61KLzZcRPUL.jpg) ![Weslandia - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91iZfH87vaL.jpg) ![Weslandia - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41S99VSZ82L.jpg) ![Weslandia - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81BTjESPqWL.jpg) ![Weslandia - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81xPWgkeVDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great story, great illustrations *by B***W on January 22, 2026* I love this book.
