This coffee table sized book contains four stories PLUS additional bonus pages full of author sketches, notes, pictures personalized by Oliver Jeffers. This is a fascinating book to muse through, as an adult, or child. The oversized book seems to emphasize the interesting, simplistic pictures which add to the intrigue of the adventures had by “the boy”, who is the main character in each story.

Although this isn’t a convenient book for student checkout in a school library, it would certainly be appreciated by teacher or parents to share with a child or group. The book boasts “Never Before Seen Notes Sketches” which make you feel as if you’ve had a private tour of the Oliver Jeffers’ ideas behind his stories. This book is a great experience to have by yourself or with a child. A wonderful addition to your child’s shelf or living room coffee table. A must have for devout Oliver Jeffers fans!
