    PreS-Gr 1—A picture-book ode to librarians. The protagonist, an energetic and versatile young woman, conducts storyhours, repairs damaged books, retrieves the perfect selection for each young patron, and rushes about ensuring that her charges are educated and entertained. The minimal text is a job description in verse—"Straightens shelves, finds DVDs./Finds books on snakes and bumblebees....Uses computers, reads reviews,/finds out what books are in the news." With its cheerful cartoon illustrations, this book will serve as an adequate introduction to the library. If additional resources are needed, it might also be useful for primary-grade units on community workers, but overall the child appeal is limited.—Gloria Koster, West School, New Canaan, CT
