''Anyone who reads or ever read children''s books - read this. It''s a joy.'' Irish Times
''Exhilarating.'' New York Times Book Review
''Sublime.'' Peter Ackroyd, The Times
** An Evening Standard, Daily Telegraph, Independent, Guardian and Irish Times Book of the Year. **

What would you find if you went back and re-read your favourite books from childhood?

In these treasured tales Francis Spufford discovers both delight and sadness - the thrill as worlds of imagination opened up before him mixed with the memories of a boy who retreated into books when faced with a family tragedy.
