內容簡介
內容簡介 Award-winning, bestselling author Sara Pennypacker and illustrator Matthew Cordell come together in this hilarious absurdist tale about a precocious girl who transforms her community in surprising ways. What are people for? That's the burning question on the mind of Leeva Spayce Thornblossom. Fame! says Leeva's mom, the mayor of Nutsmore. Money! says her dad, the town treasurer. With the help of an orphaned badger, a risk-averse boy in a hazmat suit, and the town's librarians, Leeva sets off to discover her own answer--setting off a chain of events that will change Nutsmore forever. In the town of Nutsmore, finding the answer means finding your people. Found Family: Leeva may not have parents who care, but she has a team: the town librarians, a boy in a hazmat suit, and an orphaned badger named Bob. Quirky Characters: From the risk-averse Osmund to the cookie-baking librarian with cracked knees, Nutsmore is filled with unforgettable oddballs. Books About Libraries: A celebration of the magic of books, librarians, and the safe haven a library provides for a curious kid. A Heartwarming Story: Perfect for fans of Roald Dahl and Kate DiCamillo, this is a triumphant tale about finding your voice and discovering what people are truly for.
