This would be a great picture book for slightly older kids - perhaps those just about to read themselves. There's not much "storyline" but lots of little bits of text and engaging details on each page. Perfect for exploration, but maybe not great for younger kids.
We see the action in this book from above - like we're looking down on a tiny land contained within the book. We learn that when we close a book, it's night and bedtime inside the book: the action only happens when we have the book open.
The girl in our story doesn't think she has a story. Everyone else has a story, but she's trying to find hers. Her search leads us through several different literary genres and introduces the reader to the "stock characters" in each genre.
It's cute, and done well. It'll make you think, "hmmm, what do my favorite characters do when I'm not reading them?"
