This book gives certain proof that repetition can build excitement rather than be boring.
This combination of a very simple text with Ruth Brown’s sombre and enticing illustrations casts a mysterious spell and gives a wide range of readers access to the book. Beginning with the wide canvas of ‘a dark, dark moor’ we follow a trail which leads to more and more specific hiding places until the surprise in the ‘dark, dark box’ is revealed.
