A New York City library branch has been designated for possible closure. But the bookish, socially awkward Pearl, the daughter of the librarian, canât imagine a world without the library. When the head of their Edna St. Vincent Millay statue goes missing, closure is closer than ever. But Pearl is determined to save the library. And with a ragtag neighborhood library crewâincluding a constantly tap-dancing girl, an older boy she has a crush on, and a pack of literate raccoonsâshe just might be able to do it . . . Featuring an eclectic cast of richly drawn characters, quirky sidebars and footnotes, and illustrations by award winner Jessixa Bagley, this is a warm-hearted, visually intriguing tale of reading and believing, and a world of possibility.
