A beautifully produced, small-format jacketed hardback with simple illustrations that are whimsical yet humorous.


This book asks ‘what is a book?’ It celebrates books and reading. Although ‘told’ from a child’s view, it captures the value and magic of books felt by all voracious readers, and is a perfect gift for book-lovers of all ages.
