Description
A first-grade girl who’d rather do anything than read finds herself in a standoff with her school librarian, who believes that the right book can open a whole new world. As Miss Brooks patiently tries different stories and approaches, the girl’s resistance—and her reasons for it—come into focus, turning a simple reading challenge into a journey of discovery. With warmth and humor, this story explores how confidence grows, how curiosity can be sparked, and why finding “your” book matters. Barbara Bottner’s engaging, kid-centered style makes this an inviting read-aloud for early readers and a comforting encouragement for anyone who’s learning to love books at their own pace.
