What if animals did what YOU do?

If animals loved books, Fox kit would carry a stack of library books that swaaaayyy. Puppies would gather around to hear Dog's story time. Bunny would hip-hippity-hop in a book-happy dance. Each forest animal would love books in their own special way.

Featuring playful rhymes and adorable art, the story highlights the joys of the world of reading through an imaginative lens. If Animals Loved Books is ideal for storytime and book lovers of all ages.
