Description: A first-grade girl who does not like to read stubbornly resists her school librarian's efforts to convince her to love books until she finds one that might change her mind.

Review Quotes: Starred Review, School Library Journal, February 2010:
"Bottner's deadpan humor and delicious prose combine with Emberley's droll caricatures to create a story sure to please."

Review, Publishers Weekly, February 8, 2010:
"The heroine makes an indelible presence... Emberley's (Mail Harry to the Moon!) slice-of-life cartooning is funny, empathetic, and of-the-moment. This story should persuade hard-to-please children that the perfect book for them is out there."

Review, Kirkus Reviews, February 1, 2010:
"In a word: lovable."
