From creative team Erin Sandberg and Tom Booth comes Never Give a Baby a Library Card, a rhyming, rollicking book read-aloud about the power of books and the perfect introduction to the library for little readers—for fans of If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don’t!

“Never give a baby a library card. They could learn to do anything! Just think, and think hard! Ideas come from books, and too many of those can lead to big problems, as everyone knows!”

Babies could learn how to cook; they could learn how to sew; they could learn to drive baby cars to and fro! From running barber shops to styling everyone in the latest diaper fashion, just think of all the chaos babies could cause if we let them loose in the library! Books can teach us anything we want to know. Can we really trust babies with that power?

From wife-and-husband team Erin Sandberg and Tom Booth comes a laugh-out-loud love letter to libraries and a celebration of the joy of reading that will have you rushing to get a library card of your very own.
