It’s a match made in kid lit heaven. But not for the book.  Sometimes  the little boy’s excitement gets the better of him and the  book suffers  from possibly too much love: bent pages, tears, hugs,  tossing, and  shaking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The poor book requires first aid from his friends.  Every time the boy  comes to the library, the books hide and plan escape  routes. But when  the book gets away from imminent danger in the boy’s  hands, the look of  loss in the boy’s eyes is enough to turn a tragic  tale into a love  story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The boy soon learns that the book is  not just an object and is so  much more on the inside. He loves the  story the book gives him more than  the fun he had playing with it.\u003cbr\u003e Bob Kolar’s charming and hilarious illustrations show how sometimes  our  love for a good book can be too much, but with a more gentle touch,   books can give us much comfort and joy.","brand":"Charlesbridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44215501816063,"sku":"9781580895620","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781580895620_s600x595.jpg?v=1782313610","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781580895620","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
