Library’s Most Wanted

May 2020

Pelican Publishing Company

Libby longs to be a great librarian like her aunt Nora, and it just chaps her hide when kids vandalize books. She hangs up Wanted posters to drive the “outlaws” from her “territory.” But when she realizes that a librarian’s real job isn’t protecting books but connecting them with readers, she must find a way to lure them back.

pEOPLE ARE SAYING..

  • “I loved reading this book to preschool, first and second graders. They loved the pictures and thought the story was fun!”

  • ”I adored this! I adored the sparkling, lively Texan language, the lovely, freckled, sassy heroine (beautifully brought to life by Sarah Pogue). It's a lovely, feisty celebration of a bold little girl, the books she loves and the readers she learns to care for. 'Library's Most Wanted' would be a fantastic addition for every library and classroom. Indeed, every library and classroom needs a Libby, in Texas or indeed anywhere.”
