Little Literarians Talk About Books

Tag Archives: Chris Van Allsburg

What is your favorite book?  Why do you like it?

Harper, Kindergarten

Jumanji, because of all the animals.  [Jumanji, Chris Van Allsburg]

What character in a book would you want to be?

I would want to be Cat from Cat’s new book, because he made money, and I’ve never made money.  [One Cent, Two Cents, Old Cent, New Cent: All About Money, Bonnie Worth]

Where is your favorite place to read?  Who do you like to read with?

Miss S. at Read-Aloud.  Actually, I like to read a poem with my mom.

What do you wish there were more books about?

Max and Ruby.  I have four books about them, and I wish there were more because I forgot to bring them back to the library for a really long time.  [Max and Ruby, Rosemary Wells]

What would the world be like without books?

SAD.  You wouldn’t have any voice.  You wouldn’t be able to talk without words, and words are in books.

What would you like to say to the people who write kid’s books?

I would say, “Please write more books.”
