 The Libraries Transform Book Pick is designed to connect book lovers across the country with simultaneous access to an e-book, fostering conversation across communities.

 “We chose Book of the Little Axe by Lauren Francis-Sharma because it is a strikingly original and richly compelling historical novel which illuminates the roots of America’s dire systemic racism. Francis-Sharma’s profoundly relevant saga will surely inspire meaningful discussions. Book of the Little Axe is also exquisitely well-written, and features a strong and fascinating woman protagonist.”

— Donna Seaman, Editor, Adult Books, Booklist

This program is made possible through a partnership between the American Library Association, Booklist, and Overdrive.
