I'm really into wordless picture books lately. At first I didn't like them, but I think that was because they require a different kind of reading that I'm only just getting the hang of.

This one is about a boy who wanders into a theater and is magically transported back to Elizabethan London where he pisses off Shakespeare and spends the rest of the book on the run from him. It's got a comic book look to it and because there are no words parts of the story are sort of open to interpretation, which I think is pretty neat.… (altro)

Such a cute story! I remember being fascinated by this book in the series in particular because of the cute fairies and the beautifully-illustrated fantasy world (and the humor...) and it was nice to reread it again years later!

I found this book at our local library years ago and haven't forgotten about it! The whole series is AMAZING!!! If you see this book somewhere, you gotta read it!! Even if you're not a kid! Because you're probably not a kid! But you will still love the book anyway! I know you will!!!

A fantastic story about traveling to fantasy worlds and finding a side of yourself you didn't know existed. As a wordless graphic novel, this is accessible to all readers.
