Does the door with all the locks belong to a family of thieves? Might the doorway with muddy footprints conceal a pet tiger? Each spread reveals--in lush detail--the wilds of the girl's imagination, from a high-flying circus to an underwater world and everything in between. When the girl finally reaches her own apartment, she is greeted by her parents, who might have a secret even wilder than anything she could have imagined! <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>**STARRED REVIEW** <br> "This book is one delightful, imaginative reveal after another, ending with a fabulous double-twist chuckle. The text is simple and elegant, supported by absolutely charming images, and it's icing on the cake that the illustrations are so internationally inclusive . . . The pages warrant long, wondrous examinations and afford readers almost endless satisfaction in the tiny discoveries awaiting them."-- "Booklist"<br><br>**STARRED REVIEW** <br> "Tsarfati (<i>An After Bedtime Story</i>) offers accomplished execution, sureness of line, and restrained, urbane humor. Her story celebrates both imaginative power and the way great imaginations sometimes miss what's closest to them."-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>"A closing spread undermines her earlier statement about her "boring " parents by depicting them as superheroes. This fantastic twist reintroduces the possibility that anyone might reside behind the neighbors' doors, after all. Delightfully ambiguous and recursive"-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br>"The surprise ending in this zany and imaginative picture book is sure to have young readers going back to reread and look for clues."-- "School Library Journal"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Einat Tsarfati</b> graduated with honors from the Visual Communication department at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem.
