I really like this because it asks "what if...."
An important thing to think about when writing!

A charming book that would be great to introduce the idea of stories and plot and imagination. It all starts with a little bit of nothing, and adding in some crazy ideas leads to unexpected results.

Such a cute book about storytelling and how children can learn to tell stories. I loved it and I even learned a new word cuz I had no idea what, Despondent, meant. And it’s a pretty big word for a picture book, but I loved it because it’s like learn a new vocabulary word. The rest of the book is totally written for it’s intended audience, including the vocabulary. Lol.

Loved this book about how all writers start with a blank page - it's up to you to fill it!
