Library Girl: How Nancy Pearl Became America's Most Celebrated Librarian by Karen Henry Clark
5.0
Oh, my Gosh! This is the cutest, sweetest, loveliest book ever!
Library Girl is the story of Nancy Pearl, the most popular librarian in the US. She dons many hats as an author, literary critic, and public speaker. Since the book is written for kids, her story has been presented to suit the age group.
It’s no surprise that Nancy loved books all her life. She escaped into the world of bookish adventures even as her friends teased her as a library girl. When the school librarian gives a hand-drawn map to the public library near her house, Nancy’s life changes forever.
Nancy reads all books she can find and learns that she can be anything she wants to be. That’s when Nancy decides to be a librarian, and as they say, the rest is history.
The illustrations are wonderful. The imagination parts have a different hue while the rest of the illustrations are ethereal with a beautiful glow. I love how beautiful the pages are. Just wish the text was a bit bigger.
To sum up, Library Girl is a must-read for little ones who love books.
I received an ARC from NetGalley, Sasquatch Books, and Little Bigfoot and am voluntarily leaving a review.
