Vintage Books

Books have always been a mainstay in both of our homes and our kids loved books from an early age. When it comes to choosing books for the store we are often reminded of our favourites from when the kids were young. But with the re-releases of vintage classics, we sometimes remember favourites from when we were kids! It is so much fun to hear a customer pick up a book and exclaim, "I remember this book. I loved it as a kid!".

Starting with This is Paris published in 1958, the books Miroslav Sasek wrote painted a delightful picture of some of the world's great cities. Having delighted children and adults for more than 50 years they have now being reissued.

This is London

This is London is the second This Is book and undoubtedly one of the best. Sasek concentrates on the things he likes best: people, costume, transport and local details that somehow come together to form a whole impression of the city that still seems quite accurate today.
