A new day of school, and a new backpack! Something hip and cool. A place
for books, a place to clip a lunchbox, a perfect turquoise hue. The
backpack that had it all...but is that what really counts? With Barry's
rhyming structure and colorful art from illustrator Klaudia Bezak, The
Backpack offers a lesson on caring, friendship, and understanding that
it's what's inside that makes us all important.
