The Jacket by Kirsten Hall
2.0

Age: Preschool-Kindergarten

Book is always passed up at the bookstore by shinier, newer titles. Until a girl finally takes him home. Book is happy but soon finds out that the girl has a slobbery, dirty dog (named Eggcream--points given for originality). When Book fall into a mud puddle, the girl decides to make Book a decorative jacket--the same jacket that is one the book you're reading! A cute tie-in but the story had zero wow factor and the illustrations felt unrefined, and not in a good way. A sweet attempt but a mediocre result.
