This wonderful storybook whets one’s appetite for reading. Kathrin Schärer’s expressive pictures featuring a mainly red and black background tell a fox and mouse tale of a different kind: a hungry fox chases after a mouse – into a library. To distract the fox, the mouse brings him a picture book. The fox delves into the book and is all excited. The following nights the fox returns to the library, crazy about reading new stories. Pippilothek??? humorously portrays the magical attraction of a library. It is a declaration of love for reading and for places where undisturbed reading is possible.
