ABOUT A VOTE FOR SUSANNA...
Finally! This is the first and only book that reveals the true story of what happened in 1887 when a group of men put a woman's name on the ballot as a "prank" to scare all women away from voting--as told to a boy by his grandmother who remembered the incident.


An engaging work of narrative nonfiction that has clear applications in classrooms and school libraries. Recommended
for elementary collections.
Our verdict: GET IT
"The State Library of Kansas
is proud to name
A Vote for Susanna as the book
to represent Kansas at the National Book Festival."
-State Librarian Ray Walling


ABOUT THE MUD ANGELS...
When the Arno River floods Florence, Italy (1966), it leaves behind tons of smelly mud everywhere. A young girl watches students from the US and other countries bravely trek through the dangerous sludge to save Florence’s rarest treasures. Their destination is the Central Library, where all the words filling all the pages of every book in Italy live, including her great-great-great grandpa’s. But the harsh journey there is nowhere near as challenging as saving the centuries-old, priceless, hand-painted books stuck in the library’s basement.
