Description: Time Box, David Wiesner's fifth Caldecott Medal-winning picture book following Free Fall (1989) and Tuesday (1992), has now been introduced in Korea. Known for his richly detailed and highly original illustrations influenced by surrealist artists such as Magritte and Dalí, David Wiesner uses a camera as the central motif in this story, which begins with a boy who finds an old underwater camera on a summer beach. When the boy takes the film to be developed, the photographs reveal an undersea world full of magic and imagination beyond anything we could expect. Familiar animals appear in unfamiliar forms, and the sea—which we might expect to be quiet—turns out to be lively and full of energy. We are drawn into an undersea world where it's impossible to tell what is real and what is imagined. Time Box shifts our perspective again and again—from near to far, from the big picture to small details, from the boy's eyes to the camera's eye, and even to the eyes of a fish—blurring the line between reality and imagination. In doing so, it gives the story's settings and characters a striking sense of reality, as if the events are truly happening before our eyes.
