这是一本关于艺术家徐冰的儿童图画书，聚焦于他在不同人生阶段与语言和文字相关的艺术探索。书籍的结构和形式灵感来源于徐冰的《地书》，采用了“工作簿”格式，逐步呈现艺术家创作旅程的各个阶段。
通过孩子第一次参观当代艺术博物馆的视角，故事引导年轻读者进入徐冰的创作世界，将那些起初可能难以理解的艺术作品，转化为轻松有趣的故事，帮助孩子们跨越文化障碍，理解更深层次的意义。
封面设计呈现了徐冰与孩子挠头的形象，巧妙地设定了“思考”氛围的基调。书脊附近的小凹槽图标不仅作为标题的翻译，也作为激发孩子思考的钥匙。书中还附有一张DIY《地书》贴纸，孩子们可以使用符号写一封“给未来自己的信”。通过这一方式，“交流的本质”成为一种实际的传递行为。
这本图画书融合了多种形式：主故事、翻翻看互动、书写练习集和符号创作贴纸页。将这些元素整合在一本坚固耐用、易于携带的书中是项目的关键挑战。
便携性增强了功能性：这本图画书的纸张、格式和构造都经过精心设计，便于孩子携带，成为孩子们学习和探索的坚固日常伴侣，随时可以翻开和查阅。

- Who gets to decide what counts as “art”?
…
By transforming Xu Bing’s intellectually demanding artworks into playful, relatable narratives, this picture book dismantles cultural barriers and empowers children to examine the essence of language and communication through the lens of contemporary art. It sparks curiosity, urging young minds to embrace ambiguity and venture into uncharted realms of thought.
