I recently went thrift-shopping and this book was buried at the bottom of a stack of used books. I think it was the colors of the cover that caught my eye and I immediately fell in love with the illustrations! I took it home without even reading it, which is very rare for me with kids' books. I will almost always at least skim the story before I buy, but this one went home with me based solely on the cover and the title.
I'm just now getting around to reading it and what a fun book! It's short, which is perfect for young book-lovers. I adore how it's centered around the little girl's stuffed animals and toys and their adventures in her imagination. There are some introductions to genies, pirates, sea monsters, and many things that set little readers up for a love of fantasy.
The illustrations are what I think really make this book! Very beautiful and exciting! I definitely recommend it to parents/guardians of wee adventurers.
