To Wonder and Starshine

If the title of the book alone doesn’t clue you in to the marvelous cozy vacation your imagination is embarking on, the dedication certainly will: … for anyone who’s got their head in the clouds or among the stars … This is one of the most delightful collections I have read in a long time. Ms. Gammon’s creativity is brimming with possibilities as you can travel to collect berries with the Fae; learn how to make friends with a sentient robot that can read your mind; visit your ancestors while you collect honey with your honey bot; or buy pastries for the dog in your apartment building that can talk. Curl up with a comfy blanket and your own pet and enjoy this fresh collection of whimsy and smiles. I certainly did.
