I Like Books Walker Bb

This simple, inviting ode to the pleasures of reading stars an obliging chimp sampling books of all sizes and shapes, vividly and humorously rendered in Anthony Browne's crisp, polished style. Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly A chimp of no specific gender romps through two books, presenting favorite books in the first title ("books about dinosaurs and books about monsters . . . song books . . . and strange books") and playful pastimes in the second ("Going to birthday parties, and being with my friends . . . ." among the pleasures). Browne's pictures have an attractive looseness that make them ideal for toddlers; he has simplified his style without undermining it. In Books the chimp appears in clothing inspired by storybook heroes; and in Things the lead character is surrounded by friends and activities. The outlook in each--positive and upbeat--sends a clear message, encouraging the overlapping events of imaginative play, real activities and reading. Ages 2-6.
