Yes, when we revisit those books of our childhood...they seem pretty simple, but as kids, we filled the pages with magic, added our own detail. And a good author knows this, knows they just need to give us a glimpse...and we'll pad it out with sights, sounds and smell. Sometimes I'm a bit annoyed an author can waft dust into my eyes when no one else is in the room, but it's just a moment with them and me...
