About This Book
Reach for this book when your child seems bored with the everyday world or asks big questions about where ideas and time actually come from. It is the perfect remedy for a 'there is nothing to do' afternoon, offering a surrealist adventure that validates a child's need for intellectual stimulation and creative play. The story follows a boy named Christopher who discovers a factory that manufactures abstract concepts like mistakes, colors, and minutes. Through a tour of Wonders, Inc., the book explores themes of curiosity and the mechanics of imagination. It is written with a sophisticated yet accessible vocabulary that makes the impossible feel tangible. Parents will appreciate how it encourages children to look past the surface of their surroundings to find the hidden 'wonders' in the ordinary. It is a gentle, thought-provoking read-aloud for younger children or a delightful solo journey for early elementary readers.
