One of book's settings for Flowers for Algernon?
the place that makes you feel that the whole story is important like the classroom because that is where he met the teacher(i don't remember the name) and she changed his whole life. just make what made you feel that the story feel different.

Put paper dolls inside of the shoebox and draw a house in the background or make a house, or even get a small toy house to glue inside.





Glad to help,

Algernon





Algernon is a mouse that earlier underwent the same operation as Charlie. Algernon becomes an expert at running highly complex mazes. Charlie competes with Algernon in maze races. As the experiment progresses, Algernon’s demeanor becomes unpredictable and aggressive. This signals a problem with the experiment. Eventually, Algernon’s abilities radically regress, and he dies. Charlie comes to love the mouse and buries Algernon in his backyard, often placing flowers on the mouse’s grave.
