Beverly Billingsly Borrows a Book

32 pp. | Harcourt/Silver Whistle | April, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-15-202510-3 $$16.00
(3) K-3 Beverly Billingsly loves the dinosaur book she's checked out from the library so much that she forgets to return it on time. She worries that she'll have to pay a thousand dollar fine or go to jail and has nightmares about being eaten by a triceratops. The simple story is warm and comforting; the gouache illustrations with thick, bold outlines add character.
