A must-have for any book-loving child or family! This beautifully illustrated collection offers quotes from both historical and modern classics for today's kids.

"Some journeys take us far from home. Some adventures lead us to our destiny." - The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, C. S. Lewis
"Home is wherever you are with the people you love. And that is always the best place to be!" - The Tía Lola Stories: How Tía Lola Came to (Visit) Stay, Julia Alvarez
"You’re mad, bonkers, completely off your head. But I’ll tell you a secret. All the best people are." - Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll
"We must ask ourselves these questions as often as we dare. How will the world change if we do not question it?" - The Magician’s Elephant, Kate DiCamillo
Children's books have some of the most beautiful, heart rending, to the point quotes of any art form. Adults forget this; they think that children's books are simple, plain stories with no depth. Not true. A child's book can wound or heal you very deeply.
This book has quotes from some of the most famous children's books, from very early in children's publishing - The Secret Garden - right up to date with Percy Jackson. Organised in categories, it makes it easy to find the one you need at any moment. It's also a great way to find a new book to read! I hadn't heard of everything here, so my TBR is now much longer.
The illustrations make this a beautiful gift book, one I think any child will enjoy. Fabulous.
Inspiring Quotes from Children's Classics publishes on the 1st October, 2024.
