Wanna cry over something adorable? My colleagues at @ipswich_library have a 102-year-old customer who they've been phoning. She told them about a book her dad used to read to her when she was young. It's not available in eAudio so they've been reading & recording it for her.
They went out of their way to track this book down too. It was published in the late 1920s and is no longer in print. They're also trying to record it in the most professional manner as they possible can so that it's clear and interesting.
Honestly, my heart wants to burst.
As people are asking, the book is: Portrait of Clare (1927) by Francis Brett Young.
