The Typewriter

There is no dialogue in this nearly wordless picture book, but the gorgeous photo-realistic illustrations speak for themselves. In this story, three children come across a mysterious carousel. One of the carousel creatures is a bee with an old fashioned typewriter on its back. The children are delighted to play with such a strange contraption. As their imaginations soar, the typewriter brings their imaginings to life.

The stunning artwork will draw readers right into the story with the characters and facilitate a magical experience for all. Don’t be fooled by the lack of words. The possibilities for storytelling with this book are endless. The rich facial expressions on the characters tell a lot about each child’s personality and the way they stare right out at the reader invites them into the story as well.

Highly recommended.
