Reach for this book when you want to break the fourth wall and turn a regular story time into a giggling, interactive physical event. It is perfect for children who are starting to understand the mechanics of books and those who might feel a little stuck or frustrated by things not going as planned. The story follows Bella, whose dog disappears into the physical gutter of the book (the middle crease), leading to a rescue mission where everyone else gets swallowed too. Through a clever meta-narrative, it teaches children that sometimes the solution to a problem requires looking at things from a totally different angle. It is an excellent choice for building creative thinking and showing that even when things seem to vanish or go wrong, there is usually a way to shake them back into place. The lighthearted approach to peril makes it a safe, silly adventure for preschoolers and early elementary students.
