That‘s how long I‘d waited for the new book by my favorite author, Lukas Gerbhardt: Don‘t Tread on Me.
To put it in perspective, I was graduating middle school when I read Lukas‘s last book, A House of Wooden Windows.

pickThis was a cute and short read about Luis Soriana and his burros that are known as the Bibloburros in Columbia. The images are beautiful and tie into the simple wording which makes it great for young readers to follow along and hopefully get into the spirit of reading.
Thanks to a reader on Litsy, this was brought to my attention!!!

I discovered another great coffee shop in town last weekend. I went there right after picking up this new book from the bookstore! I couldn't resist it...for obvious reasons! ☺️📚💕
