back Before throwing away any extra LEGO® boxes, why not cut out a marker for your book? They make great gifts for young readers. Take some time with a child to find just the right image. The long box sides are a good place to look. They often depict exciting, well photographed scenes and are bordered in a bright color. These pictures sometimes tell whole stories of their own. I now have more of these markers than I could ever use, so I'm considering leaving some at my local library. © 1999 Suzanne D.
