The Red Book, by Barbara Lehman
Houghton Mifflin, 2004
"Opening a square red book she's found in a snow bank, a girl views a boy on a beach--who finds, in the sand, a duplicate book in which he sees the girl in her classroom. Her book, his book, and the reader's book are all wordless, but the narrative is straightforward--or is it? The simply drawn art is appropriate to this pleasing puzzle." (Horn Book)
