The Round Box (Grandma’s Closet) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez
The Round Box by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Round Box is part of the Grandma’s Closet series of children’s books. They don’t have to be read in order, each is its own book with the same characters. Carrie’s grandma used to live with them, but moved across town. She left behind some things, which are stored in a closet. Carrie is looking for things to do, and sneaks in to search through some of the boxes. The item she removes is quite fascinating. Its a little bit magical, and makes Carrie’s room do some weird things. While I felt the book was good and magical, my son said it doesn’t make sense. He is almost 8 and a little too practical for kid books- so for this reason, I recommend it for a slightly younger audience. The illustrations are colorful and fun. There are certain action words with different font, which was fun.
