Description
Knot Cannot is a pun-packed look at friendship, jealousy, and being yourself.
Knot is a piece of rope who longs to do the same things as Snake. Snake can slither, swim, and hiss. Sadly, Knot cannot!
But when Snake finds herself in a pickle, Knot discovers there's one thing he can do that Snake cannot. Knot can knot—a lot!
With wordplay aplenty, this uproarious read-aloud encourages readers to find—and celebrate!—whatever it is they do best.
