The Wheel

When will we get there? How far is it? When will I be big? When I am big! When I’m as big as Daddy! If I were as big as our house! If I were as tall as the sky! If I were as big as the world! If I could grow smaller than an ant! If I was the richest person on earth! If I had the fastest rocket ship in the world! If I was immortal! For some people, these are just the funny questions and silly notions of children, but this book takes a solemn and serious look at them. Not even grownups know what is infinitely small, or infinitely big, or infinitely much, infinitely fast, or infinitely possible or impossible. Come, let us talk to the children about that.
