Katherine Rundell - Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, and prize-winning author of five novels for children - explores how children's books ignite, and can re-ignite, the imagination; how children's fiction, with its unabashed emotion and playfulness, can awaken old hungers and create new perspectives on the world. This delightful and persuasive essay is for adult readers.

Thank you!!!
I was on holiday in Denmark when I got a PM about a wishlist book and after 2 days back home it's already here. That's a very nice start back home. Thank you also for the chocolate and the card! (the card is already sticking on a door in my home dedicated to postcards)

Maybe because of the title I imagined Katherine Rundell old and wise and was really surprised when I looked her up sometime during the book and found her even younger than my juvenile self. I also looked up some of the children's books she mentioned and really liked the book.
(The chocolate was also a success, going by quantity mostly for my son🙂)
Thank you!!!
