In the Attic

Paperback
(Henry Holt and Co. (BYR), Jan. 15, 1988)
Climbing up the rickety ladder of his toy fire truck, a young boy emerges into a marvelous secret world in the attic of his house. Anything may happen, he discovers, as he explores this new world. He finds an old flying machine and sails through the air above mysterious cities. He stops to help a friendly spider weave its web, and in an open field bathed in moonlight, he meets a talking tiger. Your readers will recognize this imaginary realm, where a child can open windows to other worlds and anything is possible.
