Book Girl: A Journey through the Treasures and Transforming Power of a Reading Life

Are you a "book girl"? Sarah Clarkson defines this as the feeling of your heart delighting to a riveting story, your soul hungering for truth and goodness, and secretly thrilling at Belle’s library in Beauty and the Beast. Raised in the company of the lively Anne of Green Gables, the brave Pevensie children of Narnia, and the wise Austen heroines, Clarkson discovered reading early on as a gift. She’s convinced that books can shape a reader to be a lifelong learner, form a sense of identity, and create and act with courage. Books present the world in all its wonder, creating readers who read and live well.
