An idea, a theme, an inspiration.
How lovely. How divine. How fitting.
The Dangerous Book for Boys debuted May 1, 2007, and the second thing I thought is, where is the girls' version (The first thing being 'Oh my god I love this book and must have it to read this weekend under a tree inside a fort)?
And voila! Miriam Peskowitz and Andi Buchanan have flown in for the rescus. The Daring Book for Girls debuts November 1, 2007, and I cannot wait.
I can imagine opening this book as a girl and secretly reading the wonderful words that have been written solely for me. Tagging pages I must come back to again and again. Curling up in my backyard tent with a flashlight and my book on a rainy Saturdaying evening.
Perrrfect.

I agree ... these books seem like an amazing portal to a world of imagination for children, way better than today's typical TV babysitter. That's why my fiancé and I bought both this weekend even though kids are still several years down the road for us! I just blogged about them too if you care to check it out.
