About The Library of Impossible Things

From the publisher's feed

The Library of Impossible Things is a place where fans of Doctor Who bring an object associated with the show and tell their story of why Doctor Who means so much to them. Homemade, official, something from the show itself, it doesn't matter as long as there's a reason why each guest loves it.
