Selections from a wordless short story written by the illustrator.

"The Mask Shoppe" tells the story of an insecure, shy young person whose drive to be someone else leads her to a magical and mysterious shop that only she seems to be able to see, smashed between the buildings of the bustling city. When she enters, she is given a temporary answer to her wish. A careful-what-you-wish-for sort of tale, this story is an homage to the dark folktales of the past that always seem just a little too dark for children.
