Description

The two-time Caldecott Honor artist shares "a sumptuously illustrated fable about the magic of storytelling and the power of imagination" (School Library Journal, starred review).

When a little girl receives a curious book filled only with pictures, a whisper urges her to supply the words she cannot see. As the pages turn, her imagination takes flight and she discovers that the greatest storyteller of all might come from within. Pamela Zagarenski's debut as an author reminds us that we each bring something different to the same book.

"Surreal, staggering mixed-media paintings make traveling across such beautifully varied and bizarre storyscapes exhilarating."—Kirkus, starred review
