Nia and the New Free Library

When the town's old library is destroyed by a tornado, the people are left wondering: What should they do with the space where the library used to be? The builder wants there to be a new skyscraper, the grocer wants a new parking lot, but Nia just wants a new library. But how can one person build a whole library? With a desk, a chair, a pencil and papers, and orange slices for energy, Nia sets off with her little red wagon to find out.

Ian Lendler and Mark Pett bring humor and heart to this clever twist on the classic "Stone Soup" folktale that reminds young readers that sometimes the biggest things can start with almost nothing at all. Clever Nia figures out ways to get passers-by engaged with her library project, and it's not long before the whole town realizes how much value a library offers! With clever allusions to fiction classics and a storyline that celebrates communities working together, this is a compelling story of one girl who reminds an entire town of the joy of books.
