The World That Loved Books

The World That Loved Books-Picture book. "Coffee Table book for kids" I used this book with a group of preschoolers. We found the illustrations very interesting and the children took the book after it was read aloud to study it themselves. I'm going to use it with another group to do self collages and also utilize individual pages as we study those subjects:birds, butterflies etc. I do like the concept of exploring the impact of what we read on who we are. I agree though with what was written by others about story strength and instead plan to use the book more as a reference. I'd give it a 4. Thanks for sharing this intriguing book

This simple story exists only to tie together beautifully constructed collage illustrations. Citizens of this world actually become what they're reading about: a woman reads about angels and becomes a multitude of angels; a dragon reading about jewels is encrusted with silver, gold, and gems; a cat made of mice, rats, and hamsters recently read a book about ... you guessed it! Seventeen gorgeously delightful silhouettes crafted from cutouts of myriad animals, fish, flowers, and more, adorn the pages of this book. Each time you read the book, you'll see something new!
