When Julius, a young lion, sees library books removed from the library, realizes the power of his voice and uses his roar to advocate for the value of all books.

From New York Times bestselling author Beth Ferry comes a moving picture book about a brave little lion who decides to speak out for stories by standing up to book banning.

Libraries and lions have a history so long no one’s quite sure how it began—maybe because books were once rare and needed fierce protectors? Still, it’s been a very long time since lions had to roar in the name of books. But when young Julius finds out that books are being banned at his local library, he becomes so filled with emotion that he ROARS!

Not all lions are librarians, but all librarians are lions in this inspiring tale of protecting the stories that connect us and defending books that hold ideas that can change the world.

Recenzijas

 "A book people need and a wonderful purchase." -- School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW "This timely book effectively simplifies the current book-banning movement into easily digestible terms. Better yet, in the backmatter, ROAR is revealed to be an acronym for steps to advocate for intellectual freedom (Recognize, Organize, Act, Respect). As an added treat, book covers throughout reference near-actual titles (Of Mice and Moose). A solid primer for library advocates." -- Kirkus Reviews "Using roar as both anthem and acronym (Recognize. Organize. Act. Respect.), Ferry gives librarianship a creaturely prehistory in this picture book with an anti-censorship message. . . . Drawn in thin black lines, Joyners digital artwork saves its detailing for character expressions, which range from anger to joy as their movement finds its voice."  -- Publishers Weekly
