The Wharf of WondersEvery summer, a little boy visits Monterey's Fisherman's Wharf with his grandfather. Among the salt air and sea lions, he wanders through a lively market where artists, musicians, and storytellers fill the day with color and wonder.From each vendor, the teacher of the wind, the crystal-making family, the pirate scholars, the doll collector, and the singing lady, he learns small but lasting truths about curiosity, kindness, and the joy of creating.When he meets a man who has forgotten how to see beauty, the boy begins to understand what makes the wharf so special: it isn't just a place to buy things, but a place where people share pieces of their hearts.Tenderly told and softly illustrated, The Wharf of Wonders is a love letter to imagination, craftsmanship, and the magic that lives in ordinary people.
