The Hello, Goodbye Window is a children's picture book written by Norton Juster and illustrated by Chris Raschka.
[1] The story, written by Norton Juster, is told in present tense from a little girl's point of view (first-person narrative) while she is visiting her grandparents' (Nanna & Poppy) big house in the middle of town.
The illustrations by Raschka are "at once lively and energetic, without crowding the story or the words on the page; the simple lines and squiggles of color suggest a child's own drawings, but this is the art of a masterful hand.
She tells us how the window is perfect for looking into the kitchen from the porch to play a game of peek-a-boo with Nanna, and even turns into a mirror at night.
[3] Kirkus Reviews claimed that Juster's present-tense narration is "just right" and "Raschka's mixed-media illustrations are characteristically loose and energetic".
