The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek (Paperback)

By Kim Michele Richardson

$15.99

This story is packed full of what we all need right now - FORTITUDE, COMPASSION, AND KINDNESS. Based on the Pack Horse Library program in 1930’s Kentucky, the novel proves the power of books in levels we cannot imagine today. Archival photographs of this amazing effort add to the poignancy of this book.
I would also recommend this novel for late teens. -PAM
