I was charmed

This book is an incredibly charming read, made even better by the beautiful pictures. I enjoyed it so much that I have given several copies of this book to friends and family. When I grow up (?), I want to be an archaeologist!!Thank you, Naomi Miller, for giving me many evenings of pleasure.
