Not a Box by Antoinette Portis
4.0
adventurous funny inspiring lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Such a sweet and simple picturebook, reminding adults the limitless abilities of children's imaginations, and encouraging children to keep imagining incredible things.

I would love to see an edition of this book that uses tracing paper to add the layers of the imagination over the box. It would just give that extra artistic and physical edge.
