This wordless picture book is very unique from the start since it is held and read horizontal and only consists of black and white pictures with a touch of yellow. The story is about a girl in her attic that uses objects around her to make all types of shadows such as an elephant or wolf. The story continues with the little girl using her imagination to become friends with a wolf shadow, but must leave her fun once "dinner is ready".
