(4) K-3 Illustrated by Chuck Groenink. A bespectacled brown-skinned girl saves a rainy day with a lively trip to the library. Warm digital and pencil illustrations depict stories coming to life; in bustling scenes, familiar literary characters join the bookish protagonist in song and dance. The text is comprised of the lyrics to the singer-songwriter authors' "Library Song" (sheet music included); readers unfamiliar with the tune may stumble over some unusual rhythms.
