We just found the best book at our library: Flotsam by David Wiesner. It is amazing; really. Amazing! Starbeans asks to read it ["'Nother book, Mama"] several times a day and I find myself getting lost in it every time we page through it.
There are no words, only illustrations, so there is a lot of flexibility with attention to various details. It is wonderfully fanciful and I...I...I...just love it! Even if you don't have a child to read it to, I highly recommend checking it out from your local library. It would be worth your time. I am completely smitten.
