The Day the Books Disappeared
The Day the Books Disappeared | Joanna Ho, Caroline Kusin Pritchard
1 post | 1 read
Caldecott Medalist and National Book Award winner Dan Santat partners with Joanna Ho, author of Eyes That Kiss in the Corners, and Caroline Kusin Pritchard to explore themes of acceptance and understanding in this cozy story that celebrates the mind-broadening power of books. Arnold didn't mean for the books to disappearnot exactly. It all started because his liked his book about airplanes best and wanted everyone else to read it, too. He couldn't understand why anybody would want to read about tomatoes or ostriches or submarines. And suddenly. . . POOF! The books are gone. It's up to Arnold to figure out how it all happenedand what it will take to bring them back. Themes of empathy and inclusivity shine in this celebration of a book about books by a standout creative team.

Powerful story about a boy obsessed with airplanes who can‘t understand why his friends would read anything else. It also celebrates our diversity, interconnectedness & freedom to read what we want. I bought this book after hearing that the authors who were set to speak at a CA elementary class were asked not to talk about book bans or specific books being banned.😡Let‘s keep supporting these authors & fighting book censorship in our backyards.

MemoirsForMe I‘m proud to say this is my 100th book read this year. I‘m glad it‘s a book that‘s stirring more conversations about book censorship and book banning. Our voices will be heard! 💙✊🏻📚💙 3w
