How to read a book  Cover Image Book Book

How to read a book / Kwame Alexander ; art by Melissa Sweet.

Alexander, Kwame, (author.). Sweet, Melissa, 1956- (illustrator.).

Summary:

First, find a tree - a black tupelo or dawn redwood will do - and plant yourself. (It's okay if you prefer a stoop, like Langston Hughes.) With these words, an adventure begins - an adventure into the world of reading. Kwame Alexander's evocative poetry and Melissa Sweet's lush artwork come together to take you on a sensory journey between the pages of a book. Now, sleep. Dream. Hope. (You never reach the end) -- From dust jacket.
