George cant read. A hundred years old  and he never learned how. \"That must be corrected \" says George.  George Baker and Harry dont seem the likeliest of friends. But sitting side by side on Georges porch in the morning  waiting for the school bus to come  the two have plenty in common  this hundred-year-old musician with the crookedy fingers going tappidy on his knees and the young schoolboy whose shoelaces always need tying. Theyre both learning to read  and its hard. Whats easy is the warm friendship they share. In an inspired pairing  a best-selling author and illustrator pay quiet tribute to the power of language and intergenerational bonds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67598842921013,"sku":"ByrdShop_0763612332","price":25.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780763612337.jpg?v=1790935339","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mr-george-baker-9780763612337","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
