Waiting for the Biblioburro

Written by Monica Brown and Illustrated by John Parra
Ana loves to read, but she has already read all the books in her small village in Colombia. Then one day a man riding two burros comes to her village. He is carrying a traveling library with more books than Ana ever imagined. This book is inspired by librarian Luis Soriano, whose Biblioburro brought books to rural Colombia.
