The Red Book
Author(s): Barbara Lehman
This Caldecott Honor–winning book about a book is a delightful, wordless tale about the power of stories, perfect for fans of Brendan Wenzel and David Weisner.
A red book is lying in the snow in the city. When you open it, you find a new kind of adventure. You will be taken across oceans and continents when you just flip the page. But this book-in-a-book holds even more secrets to discover.
Lehman’s simple story line and surprising illustrations create an unexpectedly enchanting story about friendship, connectedness, and how stories can bring us together . . . and even bring us inside their pages.
Review(s):
Lehman's story captures the magical possibility that exists every time readers open a book.
School Library Journal, Starred
Simple, nicely drawn, and a friendly toast to the imagination.
Kirkus Reviews
The author's simply drawn art...is appropriate to a pleasing puzzle that will challenge young imaginations and intellects.
