The Lady with the Books: A Story Inspired by the Remarkable Work of Jella Lepman | 
pick4 ⭐ This book is inspired by the work of Jella Lepman. Jella was a woman who thought after the war that Germany‘s kids needed books as much as they needed food and shelter. They needed a way to feel safe and comfortable. This book is about two children who experience her book exhibit, and how that helped take their mind off their hunger and community destruction.
LibrarianRyan This book was simply lovely, and the real-life efforts that are talked about in the back as well as how the organization still lives on today. This is a must have a book for every library collection. 8mo
