A mother and baby look through a window at a view of wilderness and sky as far as the eye can see. The boy grows and the scene changes. At first, in a cleared patch of forest a single house appears. A few years go by and there is a village in the distance. By the time the boy is twenty, the village has developed into a city.

The young man gets married, has a child of his own, and moves to the country. Now father and child look through the window in their new home. The view again is of wilderness, but in a cleared patch of forest across the road a prophetic sign reads, "House Blocks for Sale."

Illustrated with amazing collage constructions, Window is a wordless picture book that says it all.
