A Real Person Wrote This Book

Books don't just appear! A real person thought of the words and wrote them down. That person is called the author.

Their name is usually on the front cover. The grown-up can point to it and read it to you.

The author chose every word for a reason. Knowing a person wrote it helps us wonder: why did they write this?
