[a Wordless Story]
Hardback
Publication Date: 01/06/2015
A spine-tingling tale of book bonding. In this wordless story, a little boy finds a book that he loves at the library. It's a match made in kid lit heaven. But not for the book. Sometimes the little boy's excitement gets the better of him and the book suffers from possibly too much love: bent pages, tears, hugs, tossing, and shaking. The poor book requires first aid from his friends. Every time the boy comes to the library, the books hide and plan escape routes. But when the book gets away from imminent danger in the boy's hands, the look of loss in the boy's eyes is enough to turn a tragic tale into a love story. The boy soon learns that the book is not just an object and is so much more on the inside. He loves the story the book gives him more than the fun he had playing with it.
