Engrossing Tales! This image should remind everyone how colossal reading is for children. The thoughtful information in the description is both interesting and SHOCKING! It reminds me of how lucky I am, that while very young, my father started me out on the most important book in my life; A Child's Garden of Verses by Robert Louis Stevenson. This picture captures that memory and portrays such a tender moment.... that of a child's enlightenment. Thank You!
