I love everything about this book! 🙌🏽

The illustrations, the storyline, the integration of well-known book characters…it has all of the elements to make your book-loving heart smile.


Help Wanted, Must Love Books tells the tale of a girl named Shailey who LOVES reading books with her dad. They snuggle together every night and read until Shailey’s eyes can take no more. Bedtime is perfect. Until one day, dad gets a new job and his priorities shift. 

What’s a booklover to do?

Start interviewing potential readers, that’s what!


Help Wanted, Must Love Books is a perfect read for 2nd and 3rd graders studying problem/solution, descriptive writing, and cause/effect!
