Emily’s Runaway Imagination
Newbery Medal-winning author Beverly Cleary brings her classic warm humor to Emily’s Runaway Imagination — a funny, sweet story of a girl with big dreams.
Spunky Emily Bartlett lives in an old farmhouse in Pitchfork, Oregon — at a time when automobiles are brand-new inventions and libraries are luxuries few small towns can afford. Her runaway imagination leads her to bleach a horse, and feed the hogs an unusual treat. But can she use her lively mind to help bring a library to Pitchfork?
