Ever wondered what makes a book so special? They don’t light up, they don't make a sound – but they can take you anywhere!

Join one curious little boy on a magical journey of discovery with his whole family, as he finds out that books are secret doorways to adventure, bridges to new worlds and wings for your imagination. Whether it’s a trip to a library or a quiet moment at home, this vibrant story shows that the wonder of reading is for everyone.

An adventurous and joyful picture book celebration of reading, from the Macmillan Prize-winning creator of The Truth About Old People. Perfect for reluctant readers, early readers and little book-lovers alike, The Truth About Books by Elina Ellis is a heartwarming story to treasure and to share.

Elina Ellis loves drawing pictures and imagining stories. Originally from Ukraine, she currently lives and works in Cambridge, where she recently graduated with an MA in Children's Books Illustration. Elina draws both digitally and using traditional media, creating her own books and illustrating for others. In 2017 she won the Macmillan Prize for Illustration for The Truth About Old People which was followed by the brilliant The Truth About Babies and The Truth About Books.
