Can I Sit In the Middle?
by Susanne Strasser
Age Range: Under_5
“Come on, let’s read a book!” says the child. Everyone sits on the sofa in expectation – the zebra, cat, hamster, and lion. “WAIT!” says Zebra. “Stork isn’t here yet!”. “Hold on” meows the Cat. “I need a cushion”. Finally, they are ready. Oh no, Fish has decided it wants to sit in the middle. This time they are ready! … or are they?
This is a delightfully zany board book by German author and artist Susanne Strasser, translated by Melody Shaw. With its simple repetition of the text making it ideal for sharing and reading aloud and the striking, bold artwork across double-paged spreads, this sturdy larger-than-average board book is a joyous celebration of reading.
