Veronica Ganz by Marilyn Sachs. the best kids book ever. stuff about wandering drugstores and the perfect and content calm dreamy feelings while wandering! kids running wild outside in the city and parks. Imagining hiding out and being locked in Woolworths over night and exploring and the adventure. Like in From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. I love those sort of scenarios. The liney illustrations by Louis Glanzman are so freaking good too. treasure.
