Fidgety little listeners will laugh at this lighthearted tribute to story time—and friendship.

It’s story time, and Seymour the sheep, Rachel the rabbit, and Florentina, the great big flowery bear, are waiting for Mary Clare to wake up and read to them. But first they need a place for Florentina to sit, and they have to find a way for everyone to see the pictures. Sue Heap’s simple text and childlike illustrations follow the humorous squirming and shifting of four friends who finally settle in for what they love best - a really good story enjoyed together.
