"The I Wonder Bookstore has a cute theme that makes you think about
the nature of books. It's perfect to savor yourself, or to read
with a child who can help you pick out all the little details, and
contemplate what some of the books would be like. You'll likely
read it and re-read it and re-read it, noticing new details each
time. Ask your kids which are their favorites. I recommend this
lighthearted read to the young and young at heart."
