I won't spoil the surprise inside and show you. I can tell you that the black ink and/or graphite drawings were superb, al la the outstanding illustration of the books by Kobi Yamada, good! And that's all there is, great art and superb illustration,which you and your mind will be able to crate the whole story ......You and/or your child/adult of any age can see endless opportunity to create multiple stories from every page in this book. Writers, get you stalled engines going with this one. It's the cure for the exhausted and exhausting writer's block. Parents, this is the way to jump start creativity and problem solving in the age of tablet and phone obsession. No matter who looks at this book, you'll be amazed at the content.

Bought this as a gift for my granddaughter who loves to create stories. I’m so impressed with the wonderful illustrations. Each is beautifully done, with so many creative details to inspire little plot twists and spur imagination. She will love it and have so much fun with this. I can’t wait to give it to her!

Love this book! Love the art style and the concept of this picture book.

This book has the most magical illustrations and is a great way to start imaginative stories with your kids. Beautiful children’s books are so fun to display too and this one does not disappoint

Do you hear colors in clouds? :-) This book is for you. The images are complex and beautiful. You will be able to endlessly create stories to tell, spurred on by the images. You will be able to use them as writing prompts or just have as a coffee table book. Give this to your creative one.

I stumbled upon this book and am so glad I did. It is beautifully drawn and what a powerful tool to share with others to help unlock their imagination. This has been my gift of the year for both young and older people in my life. Every time you open the book you see something different.

This book has some lovely inspiring and curious illustrations however I find it to be overpriced for what it is. Should be more like $15.00 not over $20. It doesn't even have a jacket.

I can’t remember the last time I flipped through a book with as much joy and anticipation as this one. As a teacher and mom, I’m looking forward to the stories I can create for my kids, the stories they will craft themselves, and the possibilities for sparking students’ ideas in my classroom. Each picture is an invitation to worlds I wouldn’t have imagined, but that I will have the pleasure to borrow and build in. Whether you’re a writer looking for inspiration for yourself, or someone who simply enjoys beautiful artwork, you’ll find yourself pleasantly lost in these pages again and again.

Elise Hurst's illustrations are just amazing. So talented.

I haven't used it yet to write a story, yet the drawings are gorgeous and just looking at them is satisfying.

I bought this book for my 11-year-old daughter, but my 72-year-old friend was equally mesmerized, and so was I! wonderful illustrations, great for the imagination of young and old alike.

A visual delight which is helping me reengage with writing.

Masterful, detailed and exquisite drawings from a true children's book artist. All stories come from the imagination and this book shows you how. No text. All artwork.
