Another hilarious story about Mrs. Shepherd's class, this time featuring a true bookworm.
It's Book Fair Day, when every class gets to visit the book sale. Dewey Booker can't wait! He loves reading. But Mrs. Shepherd's class isn't scheduled to go to the fair until the end of the day. Dewey tries every which way to get into the fair early. Mrs. Shepherd always catches him, though. Will he make it before all the best books are taken?
Books, books, books, Dewey Booker loves books. He has been saving his money to spend at Book Fair Day at school, but he is worried that he will not get the chance to buy the things he really wants. Because his class is scheduled to be the last to visit the book fair, he spends the day trying to sneak into the library early. His antics are many. He tries to sneak in with the youngsters from Book Buddies (older students read aloud to younger ones). While searching for the missing class hamster he finds his way to the library, and when the playground ball goes astray he is sure that it has gone into the library's open window. Each time he is retrieved by his teacher, who gently tells him that he will have a turn later in the day. One begins to get the idea that a master plot is being hatched to play a little trick on Dewey. The librarian has been calling the teacher on his cell phone and reporting on Dewey's efforts to get "first dibbs" on particular books. Once the class finally goes to the library, his fellow students bombard him with requests for help in choosing books, advice on selections already made, and other ways of keeping him busy. He is totally dismayed to discover that all of the books have been purchasedexcept for the entire box that the librarian has held back. Throughout the day he has been observing the books that interested Dewey and has set them aside. Dewey is thrilled, and he even has enough money in his special book bank to purchase them all. He had also walked to school that morning, pulling his special book wagon in order to be able to get his treasures home in the afternoon. The colorful cartoon drawings are filled with little humorous notes. For example,the man walking his dog in the morning is also in the last picture observing Dewey dragging his wagon home after school. Librarians and teachers will adore sharing this one with studentsit will require more than one reading to be able to pick up on all of the things included in the clever illustrations. The book titles on the endpapers, on the shelves, and book cases will be amusing to all. Be sure to watch the facial expressions of both the adults and the students; Wickstrom captures them wonderfully well.
