PreS-Gr 2—In this animated adaptation of the picture book by Julia Patton, Bartleby is a very, very, very long dog who loves to read books and go on walks with his friends. Bartleby's length sometimes leads to complications, and when the pup decides to hide in his bookstore home in order to prevent further accidents, his friends help him feel more comfortable while also allowing him to enjoy his life. A lively score and talented narration by Nick Podehl, featuring different voice pitches for different characters, truly brings this lovely friendship tale to life. An upbeat animated adaptation about what it means to be a friend and be yourself.
