| the | h. | ‡ae hung his head low, and he turned toward the door. "As it happens," replied the kind-hearted gent, "This book only costs a single red cent.” But will he get to read its wondrous stories... or will he be lured away by the flashy apps, video games and other electronics he finds his friends playing with as he heads back home? Written lyrically with vibrant, colorful illustrations, Patrick Picklebottom and the Penny Book is a story about the magic of books and the love of reading. Without being preachy or putting down gadgets, games and electronics, which are an undeniable and often positive part of modern life, the story instead highlights how a child's imagination and creativity can soar by simply reading a great book. From the best-selling author of Ricky, the Rock that Couldn't Roll , Tess, the Tin that Wanted to Rock , The Bear and the Fern and The Masterpiece comes a new cast of lovable characters and a story you and your children will cherish for years, and read over and over again | |
