A touching and compelling book about how some librarians travel the world in impossible ways--by boat, donkey, elephant, and more--hoping to change a child's life by handing them a book.

Librarians are on the move! From Colombia to Kenya and Syria to Thailand, real-life librarians bring books to children who don't have easy access to a library.

Traverse seas, cross deserts, and brave jungles in this adventurous book. Discover how by boat, by bicycle, or even by biblioburro, these intrepid educators go to the ends of the earth (quite literally!) to put books into the hands of children who need them most.

All around the world, children wait for books.

So...

Booklovers cross seas.

They trekup narrow trails,

downsteep, rocky paths,

overswift rivers,

andthrough dark forests.

Theyjourney by foot,

onsturdy animals,

andwith unique vehicles,

deliveringbooks to children.
