The Secret Box by Barbara Lehman

3.0

Oh, how I love wordless books. This one is a trip through time and history as it progresses around the constant of an orphanage. But Seahorse Pier beckons, and new friends await. Although it should be a happy tale, I felt overwhelmed by a sense of sadness, desolation and abandonment. Completely innocent yet somehow sinister.
