The Torn Library Book: A Lesson in Honesty

A torn page can be mended. Trust is harder. It's Library Day in Feather Creek, and Miss Clara has been saving something special - a beautiful blue storybook, her own favorite when she was Ollie's age. Ollie promises to take good care of it. Then a butterfly lands on the open page. Pepper reaches out with one gentle paw. And in a single quiet moment under the oak tree, the page tears. That night, Ollie reaches for the tape. Then the glue. Then stops. Because his friends had a lot of ideas about what to do - and one of them was to hope nobody would notice. With Pepper at his side, Cluckeroo watching from the bedpost, and PePaw pulling up a chair to listen, Ollie has to decide what kind of boy he wants Miss Clara to see. A warm, gentle read-aloud picture book about honesty, courage, and the people who make telling the truth a little easier. For children ages 4 to 8. A portion of proceeds from every book supports the Center for Autism Education.
