The Door That Had Never Been Opened Before

Mrs. & Mr. MacLeod, authors of the award-winning�How to Eat a Book, present a whimsical, thought-provoking picture book about coming face-to-face with the unknown. Beautifully illustrated and lyrically written,�The Door That Had Never Been Opened Before�has strong read-aloud appeal for families, libraries, booksellers, and educators.�� � The Grunions' house had many doors.�But there was one door, that had never been opened before! � The door that had never been opened before was built closed shut, locked tight, and never opened for a reason. A reason that nobody knew.� � Geraldine opened every door she ever found. Geraldine opened every door and went everywhere and met everyone and did EVERYTHING. Everything, except ONE THING. Geraldine had�never�opened the Door that had NEVER been opened before�.�.�. NOT yet! �The Door That Had Never Been Opened Before�is a contemporary look at a timeless question-with hints of Shel Silverstein and a smattering of Edward Gorey. Fantastically illustrated with dipped pen-and-ink cutout art, photographed in a three-dimensional stage diorama and hand-colored, this children's picture book is a HIT from the talented Mrs. & Mr. MacLeod.
