![]() ![]() The box itself is always bigger when Anabelle has it, showing her capacity for love and empathy through the box size itself as a metaphor. However, when he resorts to stealing it from her, he is almost as small as the box itself as he throws it out of his castle window. ![]() Towards the end, when Anabelle meets the Archduke as he sails into the town, she is much smaller than him, showing that he is the one in control of the situation when he attempts to purchase the box of yarn from her. The most important element of the picturebook codes that I saw in this book was that of size. However, despite the heartwarming plot and characters, so far as the picturebook codes in this story are concerned, there is not much to write home about. At night, the archduke steals the box of yarn, but when he opens the box, he finds it empty, proving that you can own all the riches in the world, but you can still lack empathy and a care for the welfare of others. One day, an evil archduke offers to buy her box of colorful yarn for ten million dollars, but Annabelle refuses to sell it. She never runs out of yarn and keeps brightening up her otherwise dull and dreary burg.
