# 2023 National Book Festival: The World Is a Big Place for Little Creatures with Doug Salati & Lane Smith

The wonders of the world can be the ordinary or the extraordinary. A dachshund pup in Doug Salati's "Hot Dog" is overwhelmed by the world. In Lane Smith's "Stickler Loves the World," a woodland creature covered in sticks is inspired by the world. Both creatures go on an adventure to arrive at a place of joy. Moderated by Juanita Giles.
