Sophie's World: A Novel about the History of Philosophy by Jostein Gaarder

5.0

I read this book years ago but it made a huge impression on me. Yet another book I need to read again. Not having been lucky enough to have taken a philosophy course, my knowledge of the subject was extremely limited before reading this book. Seen through the eyes of a child, lessons in philosophy become much more digestible. A wonderful, whimsical, thoughtful read.
