It's called The Old Tobacco Shop: A True Account of What Befell a Little Boy in Search of Adventure by William Bowen. It was a Newberry Award nominee in the 20's, something that would never happen today. In it, a boy works at a tobacco shop, and ends up going to another land when he tries a pipe for himself. It's on my kindle, but I haven't read it yet, though it's on my list of books to read.
For those who have never encountered it, here's where you can read the rather esoteric St. Nicotine ST NICOTINE OR/OF THE PEACE PIPE https://www.gutenberg.org/files/56946/56946-h/56946-h.htm or ask me for a downloadable .pdf.......
And while I'm here, y'all should take a look at the 2019 Pipe Survey Report from the United Pipe Clubs of America I've attached the report as two .pdf's, below.
