YOUNGER FICTION
Walker, Kate

I Hate Books!

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by David Cox. Hamish loves to hear and tell stories but has a hard time learning to read. His parents cook up a number of madcap situations (shown in the sketchlike line art) to help Hamish understand the importance of reading. Befuddled and unkind teachers and classmates make Hamish's challenge much more difficult--and unrealistic--than it has to be.
