Two small boys in warrior garb peer at each other across a deserted landscape. Each is suspicious of the other; each is proud and boastful. And so, an argument breaks out that grows bigger and bigger, until it threatens to consume them and everything around them.  In this unusual book words take flight, morph into birds, race down gullies and flood the page. I Am I is a memorable and stimulating mediation on the power of imagination and the power of words--and a visual tour de force by a gifted author and artist.
