Great ideas

I went out to get a present for a friend's baby this lunchtime. I wandered into a bookshop and bought a Maisy word book.

At the till, my eye fell on these and I had to bring some home.

PENGUIN BOOKS Great Ideas
Each individual book in the series is a work of art. And the ideas are quite interesting too.

Hmm. I feel more intelligent already.
Penguin proves yet again that you CAN judge a book by its cover and that we need to nurture our bookshops.

I'd read about them online when they launched, thought they looked good and then promptly forgot about them. It was only when had the opportunity to handle them and pore over them, that I was seduced into buying them. I couldn't have done that through Amazon.
