OverviewA clever novelty book in which a book, found abandoned on the beach by a young boy, actually leads the boy and the reader inside a smaller printed book . . . then another. As Thomas's parents nap, he goes for a walk and gets lost--until he sees a worn and abandoned book lying on the ground. He picks it up and finds himself in a totally different scene--as is the reader, who has literally opened a different book inside the first. This happens one more time--another book within a book opened, another new world entered--until finally Thomas and his parents are reunited. But what will happen next?
