Sometimes It’s Nice to Be Alone

Sometimes it’s nice to be alone, lost in the pages of a book.  All you hear is the sound of turning pages and words running through your head.  It’s an enjoyable moment, to be sure.  But isn’t it also nice when a friend stops by and there you are, reading your book with a friend…and that friend is a horse!  A lovely, whimsical story about the beauty of solitude but also, the joys of friendship, be it real or imaginary.

Sometimes It’s Nice to Be Alone was written by Amy Hest, illustrated by Philip C. Stead and published by Neal Porter Books.
