The most astounding things can lie waiting as each day dawns, as each page turns.” MomentsStoriesJoyLyingTurnsWaitingOur LivesMagicPagesRiversCurrentsDawnEach DayTwistsGreat Joy Author:David Almond
“Books. They are lined up on shelves or stacked on a table. There they are wrapped up in there jackets, lines of neat print on nicely bound pages. They look like such orderly, static things.

You read the first word and you're off on a journy of exploration and discovery.” FirstsLooksBookLinesCitiesReaderPagesDiscoveryTablesBoundsTreasureOpeningGatesPrintExplorationChestsShelvesJacketsNeatStaticOrderlyTreasure Chests Author:David Almond
