Selection Statement:
When I was a little girl, this book introduced me to the joys, mysteries, and magic of words and numbers. My imagination traveled with the main character, Milo, on all of his journeys in the land of letters, numerals, rhyme and reason, and I don't think that I ever really returned from this adventure.
