A young child tries to find the perfect place to curl up with his new book in this hilarious and heartwarming tale. Scampering from his bedroom to the den, from the kitchen to the backyard, the young protagonist must dodge his baby sister’s messes, race across a lawn full of spraying sprinklers, and more–all in his search for the best place to read! And where would that be? Mommy’s lap, of course!
