What's The Great Escape About

Publisher Summary

SIX STARRED REVIEWS! ** A richly illustrated picture book from the author of In a Jar that follows an older sister and her pack of wild, noisy, can’t-sit-still younger siblings on a grand and wondrous adventure. Evie believes in all things magic, but her always-pestering, always-following younger siblings make her life seem a little less magical sometimes. So Evie makes her escape to the snowy world outside, hoping for a bit of peace and solitude, only to discover her siblings trailing behind her, once again. Luckily, with the help of a wand and a few magic words, Evie turns a snowbank into a portal to an upside-down world full of stars, dolphins, and seahorses to ride. Even the reader is invited to rotate the book and follow the siblings along on their adventure! But when the siblings are faced with danger–and someone who needs their help–can they come together to save the day?
