A Child Of Books

"That transcendent stream is what London-based typographic fine artist Sam Winston and Belfast-born, Brooklyn-based artist and children’s book maestro Oliver Jeffers plunge us into with A Child of Books — a serenading invitation into the joyful wonderland of reading, extended by a courageous little girl besotted with books to a little boy timorous to take the dive."

"It begins: “I am a child of books. I come from a world of stories. And upon my Imagination I float.” Avid readers of all ages will identify with this delightful picture book about a little girl who sails away on a sea of words. Texts from classic picture books are incorporated into clever illustrations. Now if only we could get some modern stories in there … perhaps A Child of Books, Part II? (For ages 4 and up)"
