Share Neil Gaiman's beautifully illustrated Instructions with creative, artful graduates and other travelers of all ages.

"A perfect reminder to always be on the lookout for magic and wonder. Sometimes, we need those two things the most."*

In this breathtaking jacketed picture book, Neil Gaiman's lyrical poem guides a novice traveler through the enchanted woods of a fairy tale—through lush gardens, a formidable castle, and over a perilous river—to find the way home again.

Illustrated in full color by Charles Vess, Instructions features lush images of mythical creatures, magical landscapes, and canny princesses. Its message of the value of courage, wit, and wisdom makes it a perfect gift.
