A hat, a seat, a hall, a girl, a dog, a man, a newspaper and a suitcase - the ingredients of this story are captioned on the first page. These are then put together in amusing and unlikely combinations on the right-hand pages in answer to a series of questions as the story unfolds on the left. But what is in the suitcase? The clue is in the title. This book, which is at once a game and a lesson in storymaking, is given an attractive and old-fashioned setting in Fritz Wegner's illustrations.
