Story Summary
Based on the classic tale, "It Could Always Be Worse," SUCH A LIBRARY! is about a boy named Stevie who just wants some peace and quiet. Unfortunately, he finds that “pages are turning, keys are tapping, and the storyteller is once upon a timing.” When he complains to the librarian, Miss Understood, she "helps" by opening a book and releasing balloons, party fixings, zoo animals, and even a circus! Stevie quickly discovers that he didn’t know how good he had it and that librarians are indeed magical.
