Maggie Smith

“There’s nothing you can’t learn to do when you have books.” Eve Bunting’s characters take this lesson to heart when they learn that their library will be closing. From painting the roof to speaking wisely to grumpy beavers, they learn everything they need to know to save the library. Lovely and bright illustrations will appeal to young readers.

In a familiar cadence, meet the baby that hates to get dressed and the ever-patient mom who cajoles, tickles, and coax the baby into clothing. Bright illustrations and lively, repetitive language make this a fun book to share with the youngest child.
