Abigail
and the journey of a pack horse librarian
Written first as a song by the band Chatham Rabbits, the rich paintings make Abigail come alive for readers of all ages. The back matter is an in-depth educator’s guide, brimming with more engaging stories, chord charts for the music, and lesson material that takes the story of the 1930s Pack Horse Library Project beyond the page.
We are thrilled to announce our debut children’s book
“In all my years working in publishing, I have never quite seen anything like this book. At the back of the book is an appendix that parents, educators, and librarians will find fascinating for its simplicity and effectiveness. Rather than ending when the story ends, the book quietly opens a door. It invites children to step beyond the pages and explore the ideas, places, and curiosities that live behind the story. It’s a simple concept, but it turns the book into a starting point rather than a destination.”
