| Summary | "The Jolly Book of Boxcraft" by Patten Beard is a creative children's guide written in the early 20th century. The book invites young readers to engage in imaginative play by constructing toys and miniature settings using everyday cardboard boxes. It emphasizes the fun and resourcefulness involved in making playtime special through art and creativity, with a focus on creating a whimsical town called Boxville. The opening of the book introduces readers to the enchanting concept of "boxcraft," where ordinary cardboard boxes are transformed into a myriad of delightful structures and toys. The narrator recounts a visit from three fairies—Happy Thought, Nimblefingers, and Play—who inspire the creation of a toy town filled with buildings and accessories made from boxes. As they share various ideas and provide detailed instructions, children are encouraged to explore their creativity, turning rainy days into joyful and engaging experiences by crafting their own Boxville with a range of imaginative projects.
