Tom, an ill-treated chimney-boy, jumps into a cool stream to clean the soot off himself -- and becomes a water baby, cleaner and happier than he has ever been, in a fairy world under river and sea.

New In Paper

Tragedy, courage, loyalty - David Wroblewski's debut novel has it all. It was also an Oprah Pick, and is a favorite of book clubs. Nancy loved this book when it came out, and we were delighted to have David W. here recently for the release of the paperback edition. We have autographed copies available of this modern classic.
