A Child of Books

A celebration of stories and the imagination they awaken, A Child of Books is a breathtaking journey into the magic of reading.

A young girl sails across a sea of words and invites a boy to join her on an adventure beyond the ordinary—through forests made of fairy tales, over mountains of myths, and into worlds built entirely from the pages of beloved stories. With each step, she unlocks his imagination and opens the door to endless possibilities.

Blending New York Times best-selling author-illustrator Oliver Jeffers’s charming illustrations with Sam Winston’s intricate landscapes crafted from classic literary texts, this poetic picture book is both a love letter to storytelling and an invitation to dream. A Child of Books is a timeless ode to the power of books to inspire, transform, and bring people together—one reader at a time.
