About the Book Miss Rumphius
Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney is a heartwarming children’s book that tells the story of Alice Rumphius, a young girl inspired by her grandfather’s tales of adventure. He advises her to do three things in life: travel to faraway places, live by the sea, and do something to make the world more beautiful.
As Alice grows up, she becomes a librarian and travels to various exotic locations, meeting fascinating people along the way. Eventually, she settles by the sea in Maine. To fulfill her grandfather’s last piece of advice, she decides to plant lupine flowers around her home and town. Each spring, the lupines bloom, adding beauty to the world and bringing joy to her community.
The book is celebrated for its inspirational message about making a positive impact through simple acts of kindness and beauty. It’s recommended for children aged 5-8, but its timeless message resonates with readers of all ages.

Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
