Reflection: I think the story is so special because its theme is unbelievable in real world. Moreover, the design is special as well. Some pages leave  space, but some don't. No space left makes me feel that I'm in the story and do things with them. Some spaces left make me think about the content. I hope I can have the adventure like Annabelle's in the future. I believe it will be amazing! I like this story because it's a comedy and brings readers lots of happiness and imagination. It helps me leave the real world for a while. I love it!
