Seven Stories (Neal Porter Books) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this unusual picture book, designed to resemble the seven-story apartment building in which it is set, a little girl's sleep is disrupted by her very rowdy neighbors. To her consternation, and to the reader's delight, those neighbors turn out to be characters from six well-known stories-- including Jack of beanstalk fame, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and Cinderella. And the seventh? It turns out to be the heroine herself, who has a pea under her mattress.

Synopsis:

Seven familiar storybook characters--tenants in a seven-story apartment building--and one little girl who can't sleep all come together in this unusual picture book designed to resemble the building in which the story is set.
