Delightful story told in rhyme about the Snatchabook, who takes books from bedrooms each night. Eliza Brown plays detective and catches the poor, sad Snatchabook. He has no one to read to him. With the return of all the books, Eliza makes certain he has a story read to him each night from that time
Reviewed from Netgalley.

"Received this book from Sourcebooks for review"
Deep in the forest all the little animals are snuggling down for a nice bedtime story. All of sudden their books start to disappear! Who is the thief that is stealing all the books? Brave Eliza Brown is determined to find out. Can she save the books?
This is a charming story of a little misunderstood book thief and a brave bunny. Told in verse, this book begs to be read aloud for story time. The pictures are soft, full of cute forest animals and perfect for children. The story has a happy ending about righting wrongs without being too preachy. A cute addition to any children's library.

Read it with a child on your lap. The word play is lovely and mysterious. Have a little Snacthabook join you!
