About This Book
Reach for this book when you have a child who struggles to sit still for stories or seems unenthusiastic about the books on their shelf. It is a perfect choice for the 'reluctant reader' phase, using humor to validate that finding the right book is a process of discovery. Leopold the goat is a bookstore owner with a gift for matching readers to their perfect tale. When a new goat visitor arrives and starts eating the merchandise instead of reading it, Leopold must use patience and empathy to find the one story that is truly 'un-put-downable.' This charming story uses an absurdist premise to celebrate the transformative power of literacy and the joy of finding a hobby that feeds the soul rather than the stomach. It is ideally suited for children ages 3 to 7 who are beginning to explore their own tastes in storytelling.
