The Wonderful Book

(3) K-3 Animals find an unfamiliar object in the forest. Each asks, "What is this?" before using it to suit his or her needs--as a hat, bed, etc. When a boy finds it, the curious animals gather around as he reads aloud. In the watercolor and ink illustrations, subdued forest hues contrast with the bright red book, highlighting just how "wonderful" the discovery is.
