The book that will transform kids' feeling for books.
Emily Dickinson likened a book to a "frugal frigate" that could sail away with you to the unknown lands of imagination.
Albert Einstein's opinion was that "imagination is more important than knowledge."
"A book is a little thing.
It seems like just a bunch of paper. It has a cover, a title, words.
Sometimes drawing, too"
What Is a Book is about the world of imagination that goes far beyond the pieces of paper with words.
As we see that a book can be an aeroplane, a blanket, a mirror, a window... we see that each of these metaphors is about moving from our known self to a place that is wonderfully stimulating and comforting too. A book is a brick, a swing and a sandwich. When you find out why, you'll know why all of us treasure what a book can do for us, where a book can take us, what a book can teach us.
This is both an important book for children and a reminder to adults of why we have loved and honored books, and why they are so important.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
The second book in a fabulous new magical, middle-grade series filled with adventure, wonder and wildness,
