Memories

As a child, I loved this book, and still own my copy of it! I would recommend it for anyone with children as a simple, fun story. Take a look, and see what you might order

Appealing for All Ages

This is a wonderful book for children of all ages (I'm forty-something and I still love it). It tells the story of three mountains who receive mail order catalogs ( yes, they have mail boxes) and the items they subsequently order. It is a fanciful story with whimsical black and white ink drawn illustrations. Jasper Tomkins' unique imagination makes this a special book which I hope I'll never outgrow.
