The Land of Faraway
This fantastical picture book invites the reader to delight in the journey as it poses questions both fanciful and profound. “Would you wish to be young?” and “To whom would you sing your best traveling song?” are just two of the questions presented, the text scattered among intricate illustrations of eagles in sleeping caps, a gown adorned with frogs, and a cherub riding a lion through the sky. One read is not enough for this fabulistic tale, which closes with an invitation to begin again.
