Here Lies the Llibrarian by Richard Peck

Fourteen-year-old Eleanor "Peewee" McGrath, a tomboy and automobile enthusiast, discovers new possibilities for her future after the 1914 arrival in her small Indiana town of four young librarians.

I'm a librarian...of course, I loved this book! Richard Peck is one of my favorite authors and this book didn't disappoint me. I think it is his sense of humor that I really like--he can poke fun at people and not be mean about it. Do I think my students will read it? probably not. It would be a great book to read aloud of for reader's theater.

Rating: 8 of 10
