Oh, Orson. I feel ya, kiddo.

Orson is a bright young boy who loves to read. But when the library, one of his favorite places, is suddenly crowded with people who aren't as quiet (or easily overstimulated) as him, he lets his emotions get the best of him. After trying to remedy the problem himself, he realizes that maybe there *is* a place for everybody in the library after all — whether they're quiet or not.

As libraries move from spaces with an expectation of silence to a more bustling pace (with inevitably more noise), there's an adjustment that can take some time. I love that this book is targeted for children who may have different expectations, and that it shows them how to compromise and look at things in a different perspective. Adorably illustrated and with a great message, this book is a perfect addition for any child's library.

Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing me with a free eARC in exchange for an honest review.
