• Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte 

"One day, a man comes to the village riding on a burro and leading another. Both burros are laden with books, and he carries a sign that says, “Biblioburro.” He tells the children he is a librarian, a bibliotecario, and the books on the burros, Alfa and Beto, are his moving library." 

In today's podcast, we chat with Tanya Arnold of Biblioguides and Library Ladies Sandy Hall, Kathleen Seeger, and Kristi Stansfield about the value and appeal of Historical Fiction.

A reflection on the story of Elijah, the widow, and the oil. 

"The girls in the story only spend two nights alone. The author’s intention isn’t to cause children to worry about whether the girls will survive, but to make them think about what it would be like to live through such an experience. It is an interesting and enjoyable story for early-grade readers."

"Meigs is honest about Louisa’s prickles, as Jo March is about hers. But Meigs continually points to how the family was able, through humor and their love for each other, to overcome hardship. This is an excellent starting point for a competent middle-grade reader who is interested in the life of one of our beloved authors."
