Reviews

"With soft mountain music tinkling in the background, a young narrator tells the story as cameras pan David Small's ink, watercolor, and pastel drawings. Children receive a slice of history and a gentle reminder of the value of books and reading." - Booklist...

"Background music with an Appalachian air accompanies this reading in a fine regional accent. The text is lyrical, and occasional homespun language brings it to life. This exceptional titles can easily be paired with Barbara Cooney's Miss Rumphius." - Starred Review, School Library Journal
"This iconographic video of a Pack Horse Librarian and a reluctant reader is a real gem." - ALA Notable Video Committee
"Walter Harrison superbly narrates Henson's wonderful story." - AudioFile
" Highly recomended." - ***1/2, Video Librarian
