A review by lanceschaubert
Leaf by Niggle by J.R.R. Tolkien

5.0

This is hands down my favorite bedtime story of all time. It inspires children with wonder and it makes adults cry. I can think of nothing else more perfect.

It's also one of those books like [b:The Man in the High Castle|216363|The Man in the High Castle|Philip K.
