The Book that Kibo Wrote by Mariana Ruiz Johnson and Lawrence Schimel, highlights how stories have the ability to connect readers around the world. Featuring a delightful cast of animal characters, that starts out with Kibo, who writes a story one evening while sitting under the acacia trees. When his neighbor Naki reads his words, Naki then binds them into a book and brings it to the city. While in the city, Camilo voraciously takes in Kibo's story which reminds him of his childhood in the savannah. When Camilo shares the story with his musical friend, Simon, Simon is inspired to write new songs about distant lands. Who and where will the story be read next, and what will it bring about for its next reader? Hardcover, for ages 4 to 8 years old.
