Instructions

Everything you’ll need to know on your journey.

Renowned storyteller, Neil Gaiman’s lyrical poem “Instructions” guides a traveler through a magical, fairy tale world. Mythology and fairy tale references can help the reader dig deeper into hidden messages. The full-colour illustrations by Charles Vess are delightful.

Have you ever seen door knockers that perch on some front doors of houses? I love door knockers. It’s true! So this book really had me engaged within the first few pages with the mention of a knocker.

”A red metal imp hangs from the green-painted front door, as a knocker, do not touch it; it will bite your fingers.”

Catch a Harperkids book reading of "Instructions. Enjoy.
