This is why I have a growing collection of books by M. Sasek


The This is series by Miroslav Sasek may have been written to teach kids about travel, but they've got all the things this grown-up likes: sweet, smart copy combined with bold, colorful, streamlined illustrations of places I've lived, places I've been, and places I plan to go.

And, really, who needs tripadvisor.com when I've got all the basics covered in books that also look chic on my bookshelf?
