This is one of my favorite books. It's the story of a school librarian who is so protective of her books that she won't let anyone near them. The kids at the school think of her as a real dragon. The illustrations in this book are great! One day a little girl who can't see very well, wanders into the library. The other students are too terrified to go get her and save her from the dragon. What happens next will warm every library dragon's heart and remind us why we have libraries full of books.
So, on those days, when I'm getting a little too picky about how my library looks and what's going on in here, I think about this story. It really helps me to put things in perspective.
Carmen Agra Deedy is a talented author. I don't think you can go wrong with any of her books.
