About this audiobook
"Viviani Joffre Fedeler is full of spunk and pizzazz, thanks to the craft of narrator Brittany Pressley. She weaves Tubb's story masterfully, bringing alive Viviani's wild imagination and exciting tales about what goes on in the New York Public Library." — AudioFile Magazine
The Story Collector by Kristin O'Donnell Tubb is a middle-grade historical fiction audiobook inspired by the real life of Viviani Joffre Fedeler, born and raised in the New York Public Library.
Eleven-year-old Viviani Fedeler has spent her whole life in the New York Public Library. She knows every room by heart, except the ones her father keeps locked. When Viviani becomes convinced that the library is haunted, new girl Merit Mubarak makes fun of her. So Viviani decides to play a harmless little prank, roping her older brothers and best friend Eva to help out.
But what begins as a joke quickly gets out of hand, and soon Viviani and her friends have to solve two big mysteries: Is the Library truly haunted? And what happened to the expensive new stamp collection? It's up to Viviani, Eva, and Merit (reluctantly) to find out.

Reviews for The Story Collector
6 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A biographical fiction mystery involving a girl who loves stories maybe a little too much and sets out to prove the value of stories to a new girl at school she thinks is a little too obsessed with the facts. While it isn't always fun to watch Viviani learn things the hard way, she does learn her lesson and the girls get to solve a little mystery. The best part about this is the setting and imagining what it would be like to live in an old, historic library. The narrator did a great job with all the different voices.
