A Fun Book

Created by a mom who just wants to have fun but is too tired, "A Fun Book" is a book about everything but also nothing at all. This book won't teach you the alphabet or the cornerstones of mathematics. This book will bring out the giggles and imaginations that run wild just in time for bed. It will invite the youngest readers to create the adventure they want, whatever it may be, for a fleeting moment that lasts just long enough to fill their bucket before settling in for sleep. This book is sweet, strange, silly, and best of all, short.
