My 13yo son was amazed when he saw the Lillies of the Field paperback I suggested he try.
"Wow, it is so.... small!"
He held it up and peered at the edge of the book, a mere 124 pages. Next to it he hefted our Houghton Mifflin edition of all three LOTR books bound together.
The lillies paled in comparion.
"And there are so few words on each page!" He exclaimed.
I think he is going to finish it within 24 hours. Well, it IS a fable. But there is a lot of power packed in those few words. :)
