Bookroo's summary

Ernest, a moose too large for his own book, faces a unique challenge. With the help of his chipmunk friend, he embarks on a creative quest to fit in. Armed with tape and paper, can they craft a solution that works? Discover how determination and friendship can overcome even the biggest obstacles in this delightful tale.

From the publisher

Ernest is a rather large moose with a rather large problem. He is so big he can’t fit inside his book! Luckily, Ernest is also a very determined moose, and he and his little chipmunk friend aren’t going to give up easily. With some tape, odd bits of paper, and plenty of enthusiasm, the pair constructs an enormous gatefold page by themselves, and everything fits together in the end.
