My daughter's favorite

Not only is the story fun, the illustration are FANTASTIC. Non readers as well as older children will love this. How on earth can someone not know a ship is on their head? Are there really little people? Get a load of those clothes and hair styles. The ridiculous sparks the imagination of children. Elementary schools and public libraries should own it. It can lead to some educational discussions on past customs and costumes
