By the time she was eight, Lil had read every children’s book in the library and was working her way through the encyclopedias. So it’s no surprise to anyone when she grows up to become the librarian of nearby Chesterville. Unfortunately, folks there haven’t opened a book in twenty years.

I can see why librarians love this story. Totes the benefits of reading over TV.

The Best Place to Read
A young child with a new book hunts inside and outside the house before finding the right chair for reading.
Rating: ****
A nice rhyming story that encourages reading. As a mom you’ll love the ending where you find the best place to read.
