A Library for Juana
by Pat Mora
Juana Inés was just a little girl in a village in Mexico when she decided that the thing she wanted most in the world was her very own collection of books, just like in her grandfather's library. When she found out that she could learn to read in school, she begged to go. And when she later discovered that only boys could attend university, she dressed like a boy to show her determination to attend. Word of her great intelligence soon spread, and eventually, Juana Inés was considered one of the best scholars in the Americas--something unheard of for a woman in the 17th century. Today, this important poet is revered throughout the world and her verse is memorized by schoolchildren all over Mexico.

Dear Miss Breed : True Stories of the Japanese American Incarceration During World War II and a Librarian Who Made a Difference
Oppenheim, Joanne
New York, New York, U.S.A.: Scholastic Nonfiction, 2006. "Joanne Oppenheim's narrative is woven with the voices of the incarcerated-the experiences, struggles, and challenges they faced before, during, and even long after the war. Thanks to the books, gifts, and mail sent by Clara Breed, they held on to their faith in better times to come. Told through letters, student essays, and recent oral histories with survivors of that dark time in history, this is a cautionary tale about what fear and hysteria can do even in the world's greatest democracy." This book has 287 pages and is illustrated throughout.. ISBN: 0-439-56992-3. Advance Uncorrected Proofs. Pictorial Softcover. Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
