What is a living book?

10:30am ~
"I can't wait to tonight when we can have our tea, have a bath and get into your bed and keep reading our new book "Wy-lah the black cockatoo"
~ Quote Joshua - 8yo
What more can I say?
"The children should have the joy of living in far lands, in other persons, in other times--a delightful double existence; and this joy they will find, for the most part, in their story books." ~ Charlotte Mason Vol. 1 Part IV--Some Habits Of Mind - Some Moral Habits, p.153)
