Be swept away on an elaborate flight of fancy in this Caldecott
award-winning, wondrously illustrated picture book about
self-determination and unexpected friendship.
The winner of the
prestigious Caldecott Honor, and described by the New York Times as
'a masterwork', Aaron Becker's stunning, wordless picture book
debut about self-determination and unexpected friendship follows a
little girl who draws a magic door on her bedroom wall. Through it
she escapes into a world where wonder, adventure and danger abound.
Red marker pen in hand, she creates a boat, a balloon and a flying
carpet which carry her on a spectacular journey ... who knows
where? When she is captured by a sinister emperor, only an act of
tremendous courage and kindness can set her free. Can it also guide
her home and to happiness? In this exquisitely illustrated book, an
ordinary child is launched on an extraordinary, magical journey
towards her greatest and most rewarding adventure of all...
