“A Love Letter to My Library” by Lisa Katzenberger, illustrated by Rob Sayegh Jr., does exactly what its title promises: it addresses the library directly, honoring all the ways this beloved community space shows up for children. From books and crafts to computers and beyond, the library is celebrated as a place that is always there.

More than a list of library offerings, the book captures what libraries truly mean to children: a consistent, welcoming presence in their lives. Sayegh Jr.’s bold, warm palette and rounded, expressive figures bring that feeling to life across lively spreads, with a diverse cast of joyful characters reflecting the many children who find belonging within library walls.

This one will have children eager to visit their own library. A perfect pick for fostering a love of reading and community in Pre-K through 2nd grade classrooms.
