adventure. Barbara Lehman takes readers on a timeless trip to a world of secret messages left in secret boxes hidden in secret places.

Photos from Barbara Lehman, author of The Secret Box
(Click to Enlarge)  |  |  |  | | This is the box that inspired the story idea. It is about a hundred years old. | I like to work on layers of tracing paper when I am in the drawing stage. | I often tape different parts of drawings together so I can move elements around. | I use traditional drafting tools. This triangle on a moveable parallel rule makes the straight lines on this building. |  |  |  |  | | The coloring is easier and goes much faster than all the drawing. | I do the final illustrations the same size as you see in the books. | I did many small roughs to work out the look for the jacket art. | Here is what all the art looked like when I delivered it to my publisher! |
