genre: fantasy/architecture
Are you a person, like myself, who has always loved to see the cross sections of houses? Who loves floorplans and miniatures? If so, this is truly the book for you. Each spread (or two) is a story about a person/creature who lives in a specific place and time. Sometimes fanciful, sometimes more authentic and historical, always intriguing, this book takes you to places you didn't even know to imagine.
It's delightful. The drawings all have a vague Manga feel, which I loved. My adult self loved it and the little girl inside me was so content. My 12 year old son is INSISTING I give it five stars (he read it twice) and my 20 year old son who is home from college read it and came up to me to tell me how interesting it was. I think I might buy actually a copy to keep in the house, it's such a crowd pleaser.
