There are a few things that differentiate us from one another: the color of our hair, our eyes, the size of our noses, our smiles. Although these are only minor differences, they give us personality and tell us things about ourselves, our family, and our friends. The book uses this idea to allow the reader to combine a multitude of features through play and imagination, creating 4,096 characters with specific stories.
