(3) K-3 Angus and Lucy's family don't own a television, car, or house, but their trailer is teeming with books. When the books overtake the home, they must go. The newly uncluttered space means "a lot more space between them all," until a library book lovingly reunites them. Quiet illustrations with generous white space complement this gentle tribute to family reading and libraries.
Reviewer: Tamara DePasquale
