{"product_id":"the-boy-who-was-raised-by-librarians-9781561453917","title":"The Boy Who Was Raised by Librarians","description":"This humorous tale of a curious young boy and his single-minded quest for knowledge is a heartfelt and affectionate tribute to librarians everywhere.\u003cbr\u003eEvery day after school Melvin goes to the library. His favorite people--Marge, Betty, and Leola--are always there behind the reference desk. When something interests Melvin, his librarian friends help him find lots and lots of books on the subject. When he collects creepy bugs in a jar, they help him identify, classify, and catalog the insects. As the years pass, Melvin can always find the answers to his questions--and a lot of fun--in the library. Then one day he goes off to college to learn new things and read new books. Will he leave the library and his friends behind forever?\u003cbr\u003eReaders will enjoy Brad Sneed's delightful illustrations that colorfully capture the fun-loving spirit of Carla Morris's story about the contagious enthusiasm of learning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peachtree Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781561453917\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.83h x 11.02w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Volunteer State Book Awards - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Beehive Awards - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Flicker Tale Children's Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Review - Children\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2007 pg. 283\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2007 pg. 100\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2007 pg. 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2007 pg. 313 - Marginal, Seriously Flawed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e112351 \/ Boy Who Was Raised by Librarians\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Carla Morris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36659839107228,"sku":"9781561453917","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-boy-who-was-raised-by-librarians-9781561453917","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
