No Pirates Allowed! Said Library Lou

40 pp. | Sleeping Bear | May, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-1-58536-796-2 $15.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Brian Ajhar. Library Lou promises treasure to pirate Big Pete, but only if he'll behave himself and let her teach him to read; otherwise, he's banned from the premises. Through a lengthy rhyming text that maintains its meter impressively, Pete learns that books are the real treasure. Cartoonish illustrations use light and shadow well to create dimension.
