The Keeper of Stories - Caroline Kusin Pritchard

Descriere The Keeper of Stories - Caroline Kusin Pritchard

Three starred reviews! \nIn this poignant (Booklist, starred review) and uplifting true story of community, a neighborhood comes together in the wake of a library fire to save the stories within, offering a timely reminder of the essential role libraries and books play in our communities. \n \nA library is a keeper of stories. A keeper of memories. A keeper of hope. But what happens when that keeper is threatened? \n \nWhen a fire broke out at New York's Jewish Theological Seminary library in 1966, firefighters raced to the rescue. But by the end of the day, thousands of books had been turned to ashes and the ones that remained were on the brink of ruin. The community was devastated. Would the priceless stories in those waterlogged pages be lost forever? Or could helping hands from every background and corner of the neighborhood come together to become keepers of stories, too? \n \nThis powerfully told and lushly illustrated true story is a welcome example of how we all can come together to keep libraries and the books within safe for generations to come.\n
