While banished to a dusty study one day to think things over, a boy
pulls a book off a shelf and with great reluctance begins to read. As
the afternoon passes, the story nabs him and carries him away. Before
long, this good little book becomes his loyal companion, accompanying
him everywhere ... until, one day, the book is lost. Will this bad
little boy get back his good little book? Will the good little book
survive on its own without a proper jacket? A quirky, enchanting tale of
literary love and loss -- and love found again -- that will win the
heart of even the most reluctant reader.
