Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Cal does not like to read. Living high up in the Appalachian Mountains, he'd rather help his father than sit with a book. That book woman just won't take no for an answer. She continually rides up the mountain with a ton of books. Based on a true story, this picture book shows both the impact one determined individual can make and the gift that literacy truly is.

Originally published in English as: That book woman.

A family living in the Appalachian Mountains in the 1930s gets books to read during the regular visits of the "Book Woman"--a librarian who rides a pack horse through the mountains, lending books to the isolated residents.
