Book! Book! Book! by Deborah Bruss. When the children go back to school after summer vacation, all the animals are bored. Hen announces she is going to town to find something to do. She sees happy children coming from the library, so each animal decides to go inside the library. However, the librarian cannot understand the animals, so she chases each one out. The hen finally goes inside, and flaps her wings and says, “Book! Book! Book!” The librarian complies, and the group of animals head back to the farm, each with a book. They are sitting under a tree reading, having a story time of their own in one of the great illustrations in this book. This is a great book for talking about the sequence of the story. What happens, first, second, and last is an important early literacy skill, to focus on comprehension. See this book listed in our catalog
