Michelle Knudsen Knihy

V knihovně paní Kábrtové je každý vítán. Pokud tedy neporušuje výpůjční řád, neběhá a nedělá rámus! Takže když do knihovny jednoho dne přijde lev, není důvod, proč by si s dětmi nemohl poslechnout pohádku. Zanedlouho si čtenáři už ani nedokážou představit, že by toho sympatického lva v knihovně neměli. Pomáhá olizovat obálky s upomínkami, vysazuje děti pro knížky do vyšších polic a kdykoli se předčítá pohádka, nesmí mezi posluchači chybět. Jenže pak se najednou všechno zvrtne a lev poruší výpůjční řád...

On a street of old houses, a big hairy spider is searching for a home with dark corners to hide in. But when he wakes up, he finds a hand reaching for him, and a lady proclaiming that she has always wanted a kitten and will name him Luigi!

But soon, tasty breakfasts and getting tucked into bed (no one's ever wished him good night before) have him thinking that kittens surely live magical lives. I will be a kitten! He decides. But how long can he keep up his facade, and what might be at stake in pretending to be someone you're not?
