About this listen

The Little Village Library is a heartwarming story about kindness, community and new beginnings, perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley and Rachael Lucas

One of Woman & Home's top five feel-good fiction.

It takes a village....

Cloverdale is known for its winding roads, undulating hills and colourful cottages and, more recently, its Library of Things. Need a ladder, a hedge trimmer or a waffle maker? You can borrow it from the Library of Things.

Single dad Adam is doing a good job of raising his daughter Zoe whilst burying his past and moving forwards. When he joins the Library of Things and agrees to run a mending workshop, new friendships start to blossom.

Jennifer is a volunteer at the Library of Things. When her younger sister Isla moves back to Cloverdale after their mother dies, Jennifer finds herself wondering whether Isla is hiding something.

And when Adam's daughter Zoe makes a startling discovery, it's time for the people at the Library of Things to pull together and help one family with its biggest challenge of all.

This is a novel with community at its heart. It's about the kindness we can find when we least expect it and the bonds we can form when we're not even looking.

Repetitive and dull

It’s not often a book annoys me so much I just stop reading it with no intention of every picking it back up. But what looked to be a charming read, ‘The Little Village Library’ by Helen Rolfe has succeeded only in making me want to shake the author.
If you took out every paragraph that talked about ‘oh no if they ever discover my secret’ the book would be about 3 pages long. And considering she feels a tiny diamond stud in the top of the ear, a small anchor tattoo on an ankle and becoming a yoga teacher as the height of rebellions I’m willing to guess no one would be shocked by whatever everyone’s stupid secret is because it’s probably library fines and once wearing red knickers to a funeral.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
