Description

“This is an editor favorite for its inventive illustrations and story that explores the wonders of books. It is great for children starting to experience the joy of reading independently.” – Seira Wilson, Amazon Editor

New York Times best-selling creator-illustrator Oliver Jeffers and fine artist Sam Winston deliver a lyrical picture book inspiring readers of every age to create, to question, to explore, and to consider.

A little girl sails her raft across a sea of words, arriving at the house of a small boy and calling him away on an adventure. Through forests of fairy tales and across mountains of make-imagine, the two go back and forth together on a fantastical journey that unlocks the boy’s imagination. Now an entire life of magic and adventure lies ahead of him . . . but who will be next? Combining elegant images by Oliver Jeffers and Sam Winston’s typographical landscapes shaped from excerpts of children’s classics and lullabies, A Child of Books is a stunning prose poem at the rewards of reading and sharing stories—an immersive and unforgettable reading experience that readers will wish to pass on to others.
