This book was awesome. I really liked how Nina illustrated the book/used real pictures to tell the story. The use of real pictures is something I really haven't seen in children's books a lot but it really worked well. It was neat to see what Jack (the boy in the story) was imagining based on the real life picture. If there was a bigger plot behind the words there was a light overlay of another real picture over the photo and that was a neat touch as well. I think this book kind of reinvents the picture book in a way and Nina has a good handle on what could be a neat twist on an old tradition. I would like to read other stories with this same kind of theme in them because they are fun not only to read but to look at. You can spend so much time looking at all of the little details in the picture. I looked at this book for a good thirty minutes before I was done. It was a really fun read.
