Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This is a song about a girl and her horse.With vivid imagery and stunning hand-painted illustrations, Sarah McCombie and Kelley Wills pay tribute to the Kentucky Pack Horse Librarians of the Great Depression-a revolutionary federal works program that employed citizens, encouraged literacy, promoted animal welfare, and fostered community.Written first as a song by the band Chatham Rabbits, the 36 pages of paintings make Abigail come alive for readers of all ages. The backmatter is an educator's guide, brimming with more engaging stories, chord charts for the music, and lesson material that takes Abigail beyond the page.
