He's big and hairy — but kids worldwide love him, and so do we! Zak the Yak, the whimsical beast from the imagination of Room to Read Founder, John Wood, made his literary debut in Zak the Yak With Books on His Back. This is Wood's first children's book, but rumor has it Zak is planning new adventures in other Room to Read countries. Written in Seussical rhyme and illustrated by noted Nepali artist, Abin Shrestha, the book follows Zak and his two friends, Manju and Arul, as they deliver a yak-load of children's books to a remote village in Nepal.
