When the mysterious and eccentric Miss Charlotte arrives in the village of Saint-Anatole to take over the tiny library, the locals are surprised to find out that she does things differently. Wearing a long blue dress and a giant hat, she takes her books out for a walk in a wheelbarrow and shows the children that reading can be fun and useful. Sometimes she is so caught up in the magic of the stories she shares with her audience that she forgets all sense of reality - so much so that one day she loses consciousness and the children must find a way to bring her back. The second in Dominique Demers's popular The Adventures of Miss Charlotte series, The Mysterious Librarian, brilliantly illustrated by Tony Ross, is a wonderful story about the magical and inspiring power of books.

A wonderful story about the magical and inspiring power of books, written by one of the most popular children's authors in Quebec. It follows the adventure of Miss Charlotte, an excentric woman who, in the previous book, (The New Teacher) pretended to be a new teacher, turning the life of a school upside down. A character all children will fall in love with: a new Mary Poppins.
