About This Book
This imaginative picture book by Richard Byrne follows Bella and Ben, two characters who literally fall out of their own story. They land in a series of different, fantastical books, encountering everything from sweet treats to mythical creatures. It's a delightful meta-narrative that encourages children to think about how stories are made and the different kinds of worlds books can contain. Perfect for ages 4-8, it offers a humorous and adventurous exploration of narrative structure and problem-solving.
When a potato sack race goes awry, Bella and Ben find themselves bumped from their familiar page into uncharted territory. It's a brave new world of lollipops and sphinxes--and Bella and Ben are on one page-turning adventure. How will they find their way back into their very own book?
