Can I Sit in the Middle?

This read-together board book is a snowballing narrative of animal chaos that culminates in story time under a blanket tent.

“This proven series of well plotted, energetic board books is loved by children everywhere.”

Everyone’s on the sofa to share a book: zebra, cat, child, lion. Wait! says Zebra, Stork isn’t here yet! Then the cat needs a cushion, the hamster’s missing, someone’s sitting on the lion’s tail, and the fish wants to be in the middle… NOW they’ll be able to start—won’t they?

In this fun, cumulative story, the familiar chaos of piling onto the sofa with friends builds to a climactic hullabaloo until the happy ending of sharing a book in an ideal reading spot—behind the sofa under the blanket tent.

Susanne Strasser’s snowballing animal stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages.
