Junia is a mule.
Junia, the beloved, spunky Mule from the bestselling The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek series, comes to vivid life for young readers in this picture Book tribute to Kentucky\'s Great Depression Pack Horse Library Project..
And Junia won\'t ever let her friend down.
The library patrons are counting on Book Woman\'s visits, and Book Woman is counting on Junia.
But Junia can--steady, sure-footed, bighearted Junia.
They\'ve traveled through sunshine, rain, and snow, up twisting, turning paths where no car or wagon could ever go.
Every month they ride hundreds of miles to make their deliveries.
It\'s not easy work.
She and Junia deliver free books and reading material to the people living in the hills and woods.
Book Woman is a Pack Horse librarian.
Every morning she carries her Book Woman up and down the rugged hills and surrounding woodlands near the Kentucky town of Troublesome Creek.
She\'s a Mule with an important job.
But she\'s not just any mule.
