Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A stunning new picture book from Newbery Medalist Kwame Alexander and Caldecott Honoree Melissa Sweet! This New York Times bestselling duo has teamed up for the first time to bring you How to Read a Book, a poetic and beautiful journey about the experience of reading.
Find a tree--a
black tupelo or
dawn redwood will do--and
plant yourself.
(It's okay if you prefer a stoop, like Langston Hughes.)
With these words, an adventure begins. Kwame Alexander's evocative poetry and Melissa Sweet's lush artwork come together to take readers on a sensory journey between the pages of a book.
How to Read a Book has received three starred reviews!
Ages 4-8.
Suggests a method of reading that begins with planting oneself beneath a tree and leads to a book party one hopes will never end.
