Summer Hours at the Robbers Library

People are drawn to libraries for all kinds of reasons. Most come for the books themselves, of course; some come to borrow companionship. For head librarian Kit, the public library in Riverton, New Hampshire, offers what she craves most: peace. Here, no one expects Kit to talk about the calamitous events that catapulted her out of what she thought was a settled, suburban life. She can simply submerge herself in her beloved books and try to forget her problems. Written by Sue Halpern. Paperback; 387 pages.

The Library of Congress’ Young Readers Center is a resource for children, teens, and their families that encourages reading and participation in activities centered on the Library’s programs and collections.
