    Description

    Don't miss this wholly original celebration of the power of imagination, winner of a Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Award. This picture book has visual humor and simple dialogue that will delight fans of Mo Willems and Crockett Johnson. 

    A box is just a box...unless it's not a box. From mountain to rocket ship, a small rabbit shows that a box will go as far as the imagination allows.

    Inspired by a memory of sitting in a box on her driveway with her sister, Antoinette Portis captures the thrill when pretend feels so real that it actually becomes real—when the imagination takes over inside a cardboard box, and through play, a child is transported to a world where anything is possible.

    After reading this book aloud, continue the fun by drawing shapes like a triangle or circle, and asking your child what the shape is NOT!
