Community of Readers

Title The Giver of Stars
Author Jojo Moyes
Call Number PR6113.o94G592019
Location 2nd Floor Humanities
Rating Highly Recommended
Book Review Moyes easily entwines human liberties, civil justice, American history, and high drama in creating this women-centric story about the all female book lending librarians on horse back project created by the WPA from 1937-1943 under the leadership of Eleanor Roosevelt to promote learning in rural Kentucky. I enjoyed this story and this author's creative take on one of America's successful educational programs.
