Not Just a Book

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tony Ross. "This is not just a book. / You can use it as a hat... / ...or a tent for your cat." So begins a rhyming litany of uses for a book, some more intellectual: "Books can make you really clever... / ...and they stay with you forever." A well-executed trifle with Ross's signature breezy art in watercolor and ink.
