I like how the book takes on the House That Jack Built theme with the repetitive phrases and the accidents that can occur when checking out a library book. I think it's very important for kids to understand how to properly care for a library book and the author gives some tips at the end of the story. I loved the mixed media art and ADORED the librarian's book earrings (I have a pair myself) =) Very glad to have this book added to our children's collection!

A perfect book to share with young students during their first library class to discuss how to care for borrowed books.

The perfect book for the first time kindergartners come to the library!!

Very similar to the house that Jack built style. I liked how there was a positive interaction with the librarian even though Jake damaged the book.

Great resource for teaching early elementary students about book care. I can’t imagine any kid reading this on their own.
