Why we read : on bookworms, libraries and just one more page before lights out / by Reed, Shannon,author.;
We read to encounter new worlds, to discover new recipes, to find connection across difference, or simply to pass a rainy afternoon. No matter the reason, books have the power to keep us safe, to challenge us, and to make us more fully human. In 'Why We Read', teacher, bibliophile, and Thurber Prize finalist Shannon Reed makes the case that we should read for pleasure above all else. Reed shares surprising stories from her life as a reader and the poignant ways in which books have impacted her students.

Dear bookstore / by Arrow, Emily.; Godbout, Geneviève.;
"For one little girl, the local bookstore is not only the beginning of her reading journey, it's a world that's always there for her-one that allows her imagination to soar, provides any answers she needs, and sparks her curiosity. It's a place of wishes and dreams, where everybody and every book fits in. There's always someone there who is happy to see her and help find her next exciting chapter. With cozy, fanciful illustrations by Geneviève Godbout and based on musician Emily Arrow's song of the same name, Dear Bookstore is an ode to bookstores, the people who love them, and the books that fill them with magic"--
