“My Blank Page: The Power of Imagination”It all starts with a blank piece of paper, as so many great ideas do. A young boy is bored, with seemingly nothing to do. As he allows his mind to wander, his imagination transports him beyond the walls of his room on an unforgettable pirate adventure. Throughout his make-believe journey, he uses blank pieces of paper to shape, create, and draw the tools he needs to prosper in a fictitious pirate world. From swords, hats, and plaques to telescopes, treasure maps, and long-lost paintings, he creates as he plays and propels his adventure onward with nothing more than his mind and some paper.

Fueled by the endless opportunities represented by a blank page, this story encourages creativity and imaginative play in children and gets readers of all ages to ask themselves “what can I do with a blank piece of paper?”
