At the Kalk Bay Books launch of Tina Bester’s Bake, surrounded by delicious nibbly-things, there was a boy with his head buried in a book:
But there was one person who didn’t give the food a second glance - a four-year-old boy named Nicholas who had eyes only for the books in the children’s section. With a flop of fringe falling over his forehead, shining eyes and his hands busily turning pages, Nicholas spent two hours looking at books while all around him the adults chatted and nibbled (well, scoffed, to be truthful), and sipped wine. He had found on the shelves many of the books he already owned and pounced on them gleefully, then went back to look for more.
