Peck has does it again!   Another delightful story that takes place in Indiana. 
Fourteen year old Peewee and her brother, Jake are the main characters.

It is 1914, a time when there were expectation of females, and not one of them revolved around fixing cars.  None the less, that is what Peewee and her brother do to make a living.

A fateful afternoon, all that changes with the arrival of four women who decided that they want to run the public library.  All four are earning their degrees, and they recognize that this town needs them just as much as they need the town.

Changes abound throughout and ultimately a sweet coming of age tale is spun.  Can a functioning library not only change a person but an entire town?
