Tillie and the Wall (Dragonfly Books) 3 reviews Leo Lionni
Dragonfly Books, 1991
A Really, Really Good Book!
+ curiosity, tenacity, and leadership + Another Leo Lionni masterpiece
It's amazing how one can forget how really good a child's book can be written, until you read a truly great book. Leo Lionni is a great writer of children's books and this is a great book. You too, could be the mouse who dreams beyond the wall and discovers what is on the other side.
