Library girl
Property Jones and family win the Great Montgomery Bookstore competition; Albert Montgomery decides to retire and offer his great library to a bibliophile. It's a dream come true for the book-loving Jones family! Montgomery's library is no ordinary library, it is full of rooms to be called upon, rooms full of books of every kind and form; Fantasy stories, historical stories, stories of kings and knights, stories of the seas and oceans, space stories, stories of princesses, stories of pirates... stories of animals, and the list is endless. But Montgomery's Great Store has more than books. Albert Montgomery is hiding a secret that could destroy everything for the Jones family. Property itself is keeping a big secret from her family as well, but her big secret just might be the key that will save the Jones family and their library from the clutches of a vicious thief. The book was a resounding success in the United States and won several awards.
They said about the book;

Kirkoy Review
"Bishop's voice is lighthearted and warm, but the book's true magic lies in its celebration of the power of imagination and the tactile pleasure of books."
