This title has to be one of the most visually inventive of 2014. Bella is taking a dog for a stroll and all appears well on the opening spread.
But turn the page and the dog has begun to disappear down into the page gutter. Turn the page again and the dog has completely disappeared.
The friend Ben and a number of emergency vehicles also disappear.
Bella decides to cross back over to the left-hand side of the spread to find them all.
She disappears too!
A note is sent to the reader, who is instructed to turn the book on its side and Shake It.

Well done, Richard Byrne!
