Thank you so much for telling us, because I will certainly have to read it! I love the premise of the story too. Although we have plenty of toys in our house, we've always tried to err toward blocks, tinker toy, legos etc - things you can use your imagination to build out of. And there was a great (funny!) article a while back about how the 5 best toys were a cardboard box, a wrapping paper tube, a stick, a string, and dirt or something like that :)Susanna Leonard Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655630528649780363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999930258339428520.post-4680152103928404332014-10-04T13:48:26.995-04:002014-10-04T13:48:26.995-04:00So true - and this book is a great reminder of thi...So true - and this book is a great reminder of this.
