“I have found time and time again that people's childhood comfort book prefigures, to an almost comical degree which they cannot always see, their adult mission in life.”
Martin Latham, The Bookseller's Tale

“*To each house and each window
Comes a big, kind nanny- Harry the giraffe
With a long neck and big brown eyes
Bringing its magic gifts and stories...*
