One sunny day at the local library, a family of readers rushed in the front door to read, enjoy, search, and explore. In the library, a group of older men were reading the news, while other kinds of bookworms were reading in nooks.
A Family of Readers embraces libraries as powerful, welcoming spaces for learning and community. Unfortunately, it was a little boring, even though they tried to have things happening in the library that wouldn't really happen such as breadmaking. Benda's illustrations were cute. There is an illustration of a boy dressing like a girl throughout the book.
