This shines a light on simpler times–something I think we all commonly wish for in our modern busy lives. The artwork is beautiful, which you’d probably guess if you’ve seen other books of Pak’s. It’s not a quick one to read–take your time and enjoy it. 🙂

You could add this to your “summer” to-reads or just read any time of year!
