First in the Needle and Thread: Stitching for Literacy series, this is one half of our Tribute to Librarians. It comes from this joke:

A chicken walks into a library and says, "book-book-book," (say that as though you're making a chicken sound), so the librarian gives the chicken a book. The chicken takes the book to a pond and sits next to a frog. The frog says, "Read-it, read-it."

Can you guess what the other half of the Tribute to Librarians is?

Funk & Weber Designs will donate to literacy programs a minimum of 10-percent of profits from the sale of this pattern.
