Aboard the S.S. Cliff, First Mate Foxy reads an interesting fact: “Lemmings don’t jump off cliffs.” But Foxy can’t get the lemmings on the Cliff to read his book, too. They’re too busy jumping off.
After a chilly third rescue, exasperated Foxy and grumbly polar bear Captain PB realize their naughty nautical crew isn’t being stubborn: The lemmings (Jumper, Me Too, and Ditto) can’t read. And until Foxy patiently teaches his lemmings to read the book, he can’t return to reading it, either!

Winner of the 2019 North Carolina Children's Book Award Praise for Read the Book, Lemmings!:School Library Journal, starred review
* "OHora's charming illustrations with their primary color palette perfectly match Dyckman's playful text to produce a funny read-aloud that will hold up to multiple readings.... Children will enjoy this at storytime and again on their own at home. A first purchase for all libraries." -
*"OHora's scratchy, comically stiff figures and poker-faced humor beautifully embody the tale's essential absurdity. And the lemmings' final victory affirms that progress is possible even for the terminally silly."Publishers Weekly, starred review
-
"Delightfully imparts the joy and discovery of reading-and many chuckles and guffaws."Kirkus Reviews
-
"[A] goofy picture book guaranteed to please.... Literacy, laughs, and a light touch."Booklist

"Dyckman's text is entertainingly patterned...and OHora's...illustrations play up the slapstick."The Horn Book
-
"The charming illustrations and comedic plot will please young readers, and the lesson is clear, but not preachy: if you don't know, you can learn. This is a pleasant addition to any picture book collection."SLC
