Below by Nina Crews
The visuals are photo-collage style. Black and white illustrations capture a child's imagination. Jack and his action figure Guy have many adventures together, and the tall, narrow staircase in Jack's house provides the perfect setting. Jack and Guy climb mountains, visit cities, and explore forests. But one day Guy falls down a hole in the stairs, and it's up to Jack to rescue him. What is going on below the stairs? Only Guy knows.
