Description

A longer picture book from the acclaimed Linda Urban, the three short 'chapters' follow sister and brother Mabel and Sam as they turn a cardboard box into a ship on the high seas, tour the museum of their living room, and journey through space to the safety of their own beds. This playful and endearing book celebrates imaginative play as the characters move into a new house and make it their own.
