    K-Gr 2—This picture book uses a simple design of orange and black angular silhouettes to convey an air of mystery. Readers with vivid imaginations can expand the repeated question, "I wonder what's inside?" concerning a box left at the front door. The unseen, unnamed narrator tosses out some suggestions: spiders, snakes, and other spooky items. The one page that has a flap is disappointing with no additional clues revealed. However, the book leaves an opening for creative storytellers to make more of the bare-bones text and to use the framework for an inventive reading.—Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA
