Roxaboxen

Marian called it Roxaboxen. There across the road, it looked like any rocky hill--nothing but sand and rocks, some old wooden boxes, and cactus--but it was a special place, where all you needed to gallop fast and free were a stick and a soaring imagination. Full-color illustrations.

From two-time Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator Barbara Cooney and celebrated children's book author Alice McLerran comes Roxaboxen, a treasured story about the magic of a child's imagination.
