When Harry gets a cardboard box, it becomes first a shop, then a lion's den, a pirate ship, an octopus's cave, and a castle; meanwhile, Harry's dog assumes roles that include difficult customer, shipwrecked sailor, and "dog-fish." This original story, which features sumptuous images that alternately show Harry's fantasy and real worlds, may inspire little ones to pursue similarly imaginative play.

As his mother suggests various careers he might have when he grows up, Zachary the bear expands enthusiastically on each idea but always adds, "And then I'll come back and live with you." When she remarks that he might become a daddy, Zachary replies, "And then...we'll all live next door to you!" Warm illustrations portray the affection between mother and son.
