A beautiful celebration of the joy and magic of reading from bestselling children's author Piers Torday.
"Perhaps the greatest gift is reading itself."
Join Girl, her loyal companion Dog, and new arrival Baby Brother on a magical journey to discover books. Together, they explore the many joys of reading: for happiness, adventure, empathy, and even future success. From the quiet magic of libraries to the warmth of sharing stories at home, their world, reflections, adventures and questions celebrate the beauty of a childhood shaped by books.
But when the world feels full of distractions and the magic of books starts to fade, the arrival of the Story Owl reminds them - and us all - of the extraordinary power of reading...
The best-selling, award-winning Piers Torday combines lyrical storytelling with real insights into the benefits of reading, beautifully brought to life with Tim Smart's illustrations in this heartfelt celebration for readers of all ages.
The perfect gift for every child, parent, and book lover.
Piers Torday (Author) Piers Torday began his career in theatre and then television as a producer and writer. His first book for children, The Last Wild, was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Award, nominated for the CILIP Carnegie Medal and is being adapted for the stage by the Unicorn and National Theatre. His second book, The Dark Wild, won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize. Other titles include There May Be A Castle (People's Book Award finalist), which was adapted for the stage by the Little Angel Theatre, The Lost Magician (Teach Primary Book Award) and Midnight Treasure, the New Statesman Children's Book of the Year. He recently adapted The Box of Delights for the RSC. Other stage adaptations include Christmas Carol and The Wind in the Willows (Wilton's Music Hall). Tim Smart (Illustrator) Tim Smart is a children's illustrator from the United Kingdom. Tim's illustrations draw inspiration from his experiences growing up by the ocean and climbing trees in forests, from the music he makes with his family and friends, and the strong oral tradition of storytelling that has been around since childhood. He likes pulling faces in the mirror, drinking coffee, sitting by fires, climbing trees, rolling down hills, the smell of the ocean, chasing dogs, watching birds and singing.
