An adorable depiction of what books mean in our lives. Sometimes they are our friends, teachers or
entertainers. When we read a book and it
becomes ours, we are better for it.
David
Small’s simple watercolor/ink illustrations are dreamy and perfect. Each page spread includes about 5-10
words, but they sum up the magic of reading.
As a book lover, I adore this sweet ode to books, and it would make a
great gift to fellow book lovers. I also
think young readers will enjoy its simple message.
Reviewer, C. Peterson.
