Morris's Disappearing Bag - Christmas Picture Books


Morris's Disappearing Bag
By Rosemary Wells
(Scholastic, Inc., 1975)

I absolutely love Morris's Disappearing Bag. What a fabulous book that showcases the imagination of children!

As the baby of the family, Morris is often overlooked and not included in play with his older siblings.

That is, until he discovers one overlooked present under the tree. A disappearing bag! Suddenly, his family social standing switches place with all siblings. And the fun begins.

The story and illustrations are perfectly married and give the gift of a wonderful story. Look for this book. And expect requests for disappearing bags to jump onto the Christmas list.

For added fun?

I can't advise you to locate disappearing bags, since I doubt they exist. Or do they?

But do add gifts of toys that encourage make believe play and the use of imagination. Your child's brain will thank you.
