Kiss a crocodile all by yourself on the Nile River? How about learning how to bottle moonlight, or track a distant star? There are endless things to discover and whole universes to explore simply by reading a book. But books are only smears of ink without the reader's mind to give their letters meaning and bring them to life. With a rollicking, rhyming text and delightful artwork, poet and storyteller Allan Wolf and illustrator Brianne Farley remind us that books, no matter how they may be consumed, give readers of every background an opportunity to expand their world and spark their imagination. With infectious enthusiasm, \u003ci\u003eNo Buddy Like a Book \u003c\/i\u003eoffers an ode to the wonders of language--written, spoken, and everything in between.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAllan Wolf\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of many books for young people, including the novel \u003ci\u003eThe Watch that Ends the Night\u003c\/i\u003e, which was named one of the 50 Best Young Adult Novels of All Time by \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e; the novel \u003ci\u003eJunius Leak and the Spiraling Vortex of Doom;\u003c\/i\u003e the nonfiction graphic novel \u003ci\u003eThe Vanishing of Lake Peigneur\u003c\/i\u003e, illustrated by Jose Pimienta; and the poetry collection \u003ci\u003eThe Gift of the Broken Teacup\u003c\/i\u003e, illustrated by Jade Orlando.
