"Roger wants some peace and quiet so he can read his book, but his neighbor Emily has some hobbies of her own -- very loud ones!"--

Roger is Reading a Book

Kim Tyo-Dickerson

Roger's trying to read and his little neighbor girl Emily's hobbies are driving him nuts. So much noise! So busy! Solution? Find something in common! Lovely story about opposites finding a way to coexist and enjoy themselves. Any adult who just wants to read a book can relate to this humorous Belgian import. The endpapers are gorgeous, first cosy reading lights while leaves whip along the rain-soaked street, wrapping up the text with Roger and Emily sharing a rainy neighborhood walk with Roger's dog. I immediately felt the Benelux vibe, a perfect autumn evening setting for any book lover!
