Reach for this book when your child seems bored with the everyday or when their imagination needs a spark to ignite a new creative project. It is the perfect remedy for a 'rainy day' slump or for a child who loves to catalog and collect things from the natural world. This book acts as a beautifully illustrated field guide to a fictional island that defies the laws of physics and biology. Norman Messenger presents his 'findings' through detailed sketches and fold-out pages, describing a land where trees grow furniture and birds have clockwork feathers. While there is no traditional narrative arc, the book fosters deep curiosity and encourages children to look at their own world with a more observant, inventive eye. It is an ideal choice for elementary-aged children who enjoy high-detail art and the thrill of discovery.
