Nancy Pearl's Summer Reading List
Nancy Pearl is very well known in the library world. Burlingtonians have Pearl to thank for the One Book One Burlington program, as she was the librarian who founded this type of program with her ground-breaking "If all of Seattle Read the Same Book" initiative. She even has the distinction of having an action figure modelled after her.... an action figure with "amazing push-button SHUSHING action"!
But you don't get your own action figure for nothing! Nancy Pearl has proven herself to be a champion of books and her knowledge of literature is unequaled. Recently on National Public Radio, Pearl announced 10 Great Summer Reads. For the star librarian's list of best bets for Summer 2011, please click here.
