Instructions by Neil Gaiman by Alexandra Kroeger - Tuesday, May 04, 2010 at 3:39pm

In Instructions, Neil Gaiman gives you everything you'll need to know on your journey through a fairyland and back again - how to get through the wild wood and past the giants, and how you should always remember your manners.

Trust dreams
Trust your heart,
and trust your story.

Simply put, this is a fantastic book. The poem it is based on is wonderful on its own, but Charles Vess's beautiful illustrations bring the text to life in a way that I could never imagine on my own. It is perfect for adults and children alike, especially those who love fairy tales. It is also a wonderful graduation gift; not only does it give the reader instructions for a successful journey through a fairytale, but these words of wisdom will serve the reader well in guiding them past the ogres and dark woods of this world.
