Welcome to Library House Editing! The name comes from my family’s prolific use of the public library, and our attempts to turn our home into a library. We are all about BOOKS! Actually … we are all about the STORIES contained in books. Books would just be stacks of paper if it wasn’t for the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve read my kids literally thousands of picture books. They’ve outgrown them, and now read a lot of twists on fairy tales and mythology. My husband also likes fantasy and science fiction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite-favorite-favorite stories are real ones, about real people. The first book I really remember reading in elementary school – third or fourth grade maybe? – was a biography of Jane Addams and it was the coolest thing ever. She was a moderately wealthy woman who wanted to help the poor and became a social activist. Consider me hooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biographies and memoir currently in-process of reading or waiting to be opened: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

• Under the Tuscan Sun<\/li>
• I am Malala<\/li>
• Madame Secretary: Madeleine Albright<\/li>
• The Boys in the Boat<\/li>
• Save Me the Plums<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
