A Long Way — Katherine Ayres

A little girl takes some intriguing conveyances on a flight of fancy to her grandmother's house - with the help of a big empty box and a very active imagination

A gift for Grandma arrives one fine day, and her young granddaughter is
eager to deliver it by hand. Grandma's house may be just a hop, skip, and
a jump away, but to the girl it seems a long way, and it certainly takes a
special kind of creativity to get there. A spare text and abundantly descriptive illustrations guide this elaborate journey into a child's world of make-believe.
