Overview

An interactive, playful picture book about getting lost in a book—literally! Two best friends, Chad and Oliver, take a leisurely stroll through a book, but when Oliver disappears, they soon find out that some books can be an adventure! With each turn of the page, things go hilariously from bad to worse as everyone who comes to help slips into the same situation—that is, until a librarian comes to the rescue. With a creatively spare design, this highly original, interactive picture book from nationally syndicated cartoonist Chris Britt is not only laugh-out-loud funny, but also a great primer for kids on the anatomy of a book.
