What Others Are Saying:
“Finally, the secret’s out: librarians can be loud! . . . Jones’s mixed-media and collage illustrations are playful and eye-catching,
with a three-dimensional feel. Penelope’s shouts explode across the page in giant speech bubbles. . . This one is sure to be a storytime
favorite.”
– The Horn Book
“The bright, blocky illustrations are pitch-perfect for the tone .. . This tale of an aspiring librarian is ideal for all kinds of
storytimes.”
