The Jacket

40 pp. | Enchanted Lion | October, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59270-168-1 $17.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Dasha Tolstikova. Book--blue and personified with a human face--gets a humiliating mud bath courtesy of its owner's dog. Fortunately, the owner has an idea that makes Book happy and also explains The Jacket's title and cover (two eyes looking through cut-out holes set on ostensibly hand-decorated yellow paper). This original, turn-lemons-into-lemonade-themed offering concludes with steps for making a book jacket.
