This new adventure with Red Knit Cap Girl and her friends uses simple prose and radiant illustrations to shine a light on the joy of reading and the importance of working together.


One day Red Knit Cap Girl and her friends discover a hollow tree in the middle of the forest. What can be done with one ordinary tree? "I will keep my book in this nook so everyone can read it," Red Knit Cap Girl says.

But the tree isn't only for books. Little by little, one by one, the animals share their unique gifts and turn the ordinary tree into a special spot for everyone to enjoy!


We are huge fans of Red Knit Cap Girl. We absolutely adored this story, and the woodland library Red Knit Cap Girl and her friends make in a hallowed out tree. We loved the team work Red Knit Cap Girl and her friends have when making the library. Everyone's input was important in creating a place Red Knit Cap Girl and her woodland friends can go to read, and spend time at together.


I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves. ~ Anna Quindlen

Good children's literature appeals not only to
the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.
