Age range 3 to 6 No visit to an art gallery can rival this one! Tom

"Welcome to the library... A room packed with stories from ceiling
to floor, Shelves of adventures for you to explore. But each book
has two stories -- the tale the words tell, And the tale of the
journey it's been on as well." This is the story of one incredible
library book and all the children who've borrowed it. It's been
hugged, lost, torn, chewed by a dog and soaked in the rain. It's
been read in apartments and in tents, in the park and in the
classroom; by children in costumes and pyjamas, reading alone or
with their friends, their siblings and their parents. Each time it
returns to the library it's a little more worn, but a lot more
loved. For every rip, scribble or stain there's a child who has
found adventure or escape, comfort or excitement in its pages.
That's the magic of a library book! This fun, rhyming text from
Caroline Crowe celebrates a love of books and libraries, the joy of
discovering a new favourite read, and of sharing it with others.
New York Times-bestseller John Joseph's bright and joyful
illustrations bring a diverse cast of children to life with humour
and enthusiasm.
