I appreciated the idea of finding wonder where we are. It was great to see this child go and learn from the older folks in the community and to find something great from an outcast child. A quick read. ( )
What a lovely little book for young people. I love to keep up with what young people are reading was glad to hear about a book not about battling the evil forces of the world but of simply discovering wonders that exist in real world. ( )

To the many wonderful storytellers in my family, especially my father, Ed Griesbaum, who has preserved the stories of two families and carved a magical village of his own. To the memory of my grandmother, Ella Hinson Mohrmann, who enthralled and delighted my sister and me with her stories of growing up in the country. To the memory of my mother, Ella Mohrmann Griesbaum, and my grandfather, Herman Mohrmann, who both loved to tell a good story. To my editor, Caitlyn Dlouhy, the Eighth Wonder of Sassafras Springs! And, finally, to good storytellers everywhere. -B. G. B.

Sometimes extraordinary things begin in ordinary places. A fancy-dancy butterfly starts out in a plain little cocoon. A great big apple tree grows from a tiny brown speck of a seed. And the Wonders started right on our own front porch on a hot summer night I would have forgotten on the spot if it hadn't been for what got started then and kept on going.
On the whole, folks don't like to open their doors to barefoot boys in dusty overalls...
On the whole, rich or poor, most folks believe they are in possession of a Wonder, whether it's their grandfather's glass eye, a silver spoon from the Palace of Electricity at the 1904 World's Fair, or a pumpkin that’s a dead ringer for Abe Lincoln.
Eben, there are two kinds of folks: those who are satisfied right where they are and those with an itch to see the rest of the world. If you're the kind who's got to go, then get going. Even if you don't, now that you've found seven Wonders, I'll bet you'll be noticing new ones every day.
