For every child who has ever felt that grown-ups have all the fun, here is a vicarious chance to slip behind the office door--and play with all the tempting things that are off-lim its. Dad's office is off-limits--which only makes it more intriguing to his curious young daughter. As soon as she sees an opening, she sneaks in to have a look around. After all, there's no harm in just looking, right? What she discovers is a magical wonderland of sticky tape, paper clips that make glorious strands, and a kaleidoscopic array of sticky notes. Who could possibly resist playing with those? In a joyful ode to office supplies, Helen Yoon leads a celebration of just-for-once breaking the rules--and offers a final, funny nod to adults who harbor a similar urge.Author: Helen YoonPublisher: Candlewick Press (MA)Published: 11/09/2021Pages: 32Binding Type: HardcoverWeight: 0.95lbsSize: 9.10h x 9.90w x 0.40dISBN: 9781536207316Audience: Ages 4-8Accelerated Reader:Reading Level: 1Point Value: 0.5Interest Level: Lower GradeQuiz #/Name: 515160 / Off-LimitsReview Citation(s): School Library Journal 08/01/2021 pg. 66Bulletin of Ctr for Child Bks 09/01/2021Publishers Weekly 08/30/2021Kirkus Reviews 10/01/2021Horn Book Magazine 11/01/2021 pg. 92Booklist 12/01/2021 pg. 57Hornbook Guide to Children 07/01/2021 - Outstanding, Noteworthy In StyleAbout the AuthorHelen Yoon is a professional illustrator and a freelance concept designer.
