"You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people sit in silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals as librarians."--Monty Python

STAFF PICKS--Sarah's Key
Valerie's Pick: Sarah's Key, by Tatiana de Rosnay
The story travels from modern Paris to the 1942 Paris roundups and deportations of Jews. Julia, an American married to a haughty Frenchman, is drawn to the story of Sarah, the only member of one particular family to survive. It beautifully conveys Julia's conflicting loyalties, and makes Sarah's trials so riveting, her innocence so absorbing, that the book is hard to put down.
