Description

A stray cat follows her love of books all the way to a new library home in this charming debut picture book that's "catnip for librarians and young book lovers alike" (School Library Journal, starred review).

Clarisse is a clever cat who loves books. She may not understand the dark, squiggly lines, but she can't get enough of the pictures. One day, she stumbles upon a magical building where people walk in empty-handed and come out with an armload of books. She has to find a way inside!

There's just one problem: NO CATS are allowed in the library! That's not going to stop clever Clarisse, though. Once she sneaks in, she stumbles upon exciting new stories and even helps a little girl practice reading aloud. But when the librarian comes looking, will Clarisse be allowed to stay?

"The pleasing story emerges in the simply written text and the characters' cartoon-style speech balloons. In the attractive illustrations, muted shades of orange and teal are used extensively, giving the artwork a warm, distinctive look. This library-friendly volume is sure to find its audience." -- Booklist
"Sweetly encouraging." -- Kirkus Reviews

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
