Kiss a crocodile all by yourself on the Nile River? How about learning how to bottle moonlight, or track a distant star? There are endless things to discover and whole universes to explore simply by reading a book. But books are only smears of ink without the reader's mind to give their letters meaning and bring them to life. With a rollicking, rhyming text and delightful artwork, poet and storyteller Allan Wolf and illustrator Brianne Farley remind us that books, no matter how they may be consumed, give readers of every background an opportunity to expand their world and spark their imagination. With infectious enthusiasm, \u003ci\u003eNo Buddy Like a Book \u003c\/i\u003eoffers an ode to the wonders of language--written, spoken, and everything in between.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Candlewick Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781536203073\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32","brand":"Allan Wolf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38213874155701,"sku":"9781536203073","price":14.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_c1f1cb45-dc8e-4544-b28f-71e11136626c.jpg?v=1610443198","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/no-buddy-like-a-book-9781536203073","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
