Picture Book Review: Child of Words

One little girl rescues a boy and together they travel the world through stories, books, and their imagination. 
My Thoughts: I LOVED this book! The illustrations were amazing: clever, sweet, engaging, and perfect to pour over. It's perfect for all book nerds! Great for one on one sharing and talking about books.

Cover Thoughts: Cute

Library Recommendation: Perfect for all public and school libraries
