Since 2007, Amazon has made significant progress to reduce excess packaging in its shipments to customers and has introduced additional types of recyclable packing materials to protect items while in transit.
Amazon has developed a software program that determines the "right-sized" box for any given item to be shipped to a customer, based on that item's dimensions and weight.
A software program? You need a software program to determine the 'right sized box'? And apparently having said software program eliminates free will. Packager is holding miniscule object in one hand, giant box in other and saying 'well, the software program says this is the right box...'
I'm going to put the box downstairs now. It has become a symbol of all that is wrong with the world. I can't even look at it. It hurts my heart.

Oh Dear - what a big box - you could always keep it and use it to send a present to me! Obviously it would need to b a BIG present.....
And they still get it wrong... I always get huge boxes for a single book, with those silly air bags in them!
Just wait until Fiona's a bit bigger and she'll have such fun with it. The box is the most exciting bit - post man pat van/fire engine/tardis/shop/wendy house/space rocket.
