It's a Book

 Smith, L. (2011).  It’s a book.  NY: Roaring Brook.

Through extremely simple text, a tech obsessed donkey asks a series of questions to a monkey, about a book.  Does it scroll?  Do you blog with it?  Can it text?  Tweet?  Eventually the donkey gives it a go and finds himself emerged in the book.  The simplicity of the book is engaging to young readers who will find the aloofness of the donkey funny.  The illustrations add to the book by showing the character's emotions.  The last line is geared toward an older crowd and could be humorous or offensive, depending on the crowd.  This book will engage the tech savvy kids.  This book could also  be used to teach compare/contrast.
