HarperCollins, 2008. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. New/New. Denise Brunkus. CONDITION: NEW 2008 HarperCollins hardcover (pictorial boards) & dust jacket, first edition, first printing. Embossed blue foil title front DJ panel. Clever color illustrations by Denise Brunkus - especially love her "pigs." CONTENT: Tyrone loves math, lives for science, and is king of the playground. But books-well, he doesn't really care for them. When his teacher, Miss Libro, reads aloud, Tyrone usually finds something better to do, like making paper airplanes. Then, during one of the story sessions something happens: Tyrone starts listening. And once he listens, incredible things occur. Ghosts and dragons fly out of their books and into the classroom, and Ben Franklin stops by. But best of all is when a pig pops in (perhaps Wilbur from Charlotte's Web?); Tyrone is crushed when the story is over, and the pig disappears. A search for the pig ends at the library, where the students also find all the other characters they have met before. A combined effort by First Lady Laura Bush and daughter, this purposeful tale gets a real kick from the art. Brunkus, the illustrator of the Junie B. Jones books, offers highly colored pictures that find fun in classroom situations, both real and fantastical. Even non-readers may be prompted to give books a try., HarperCollins, 2008, 6<
