Here Lies the Librarian

Price: $6.99 USD

Peewee idolizes Jake, a big brother whose dreams of auto mechanic glory are fueled by the hard road coming to link their Indiana town and futures with the twentieth century. And motoring down the road comes Irene Ridpath, a young librarian with plans to astonish them all and turn Peewee’s life upside down. Here Lies the Librarian, with its quirky characters, folksy setting, classic cars, and hilariously larger-than-life moments, is vintage Richard Peck—an offbeat, deliciously wicked comedy that is also unexpectedly moving.

Entertainment for a wide age range.
My sons and I listened to this audiobook on a recent trip and we all enjoyed it. There was enough character development and a great plot to keep me interested, and the storyline moved along well and had enough action to keep the attention of both my 10 year old, as well as my 17 year old. We have read and/or listened to several books by this author and he is an excellent storyteller with an elegant style of writing. This is the type of literature I love to share with my children.
