When the town's old library is destroyed by a tornado, the people are left wondering: What should they do with the space where the library used to be?
The characters in Nia and the New Free Library all want different things: the builder wants there to be a new skyscraper, the grocer wants a new parking lot, but Nia just wants a new library . . . but how can one person build a whole library?
• Explores the power of community and what a group can accomplish
• Teaches the importance of working together toward a common goal
• Reminds readers of the important role libraries play in community, and how they work
Sometimes the biggest things can start with almost nothing at all.
Ian Lendler and Mark Pett bring humor and heart to this clever twist on the classic "Stone Soup" folktale.
• This triumphant ode to the magic of sharing stories is sure to strike a chord with bibliophiles of all genres, ages, and stripes.
• Perfect for children ages 5 to 8 years old
• Great for parents and grandparents, as well as librarians, teachers, and educators
• You'll love this book if you love books like Stone Soup by Marcia Brown, Delivering Your Mail by Ann Owen, and Seeds and Trees by Brandon Walden.
