The Librarians is a TNT TV series. This Book is based on that TV series. The book isn't labeled as YA but I would classify it as a young adult read. It is pretty simplistic in it's characterizations and superficial in a lot of ways. The gist of the plot is that the Librarians are tasked with safeguarding mystical and magical books and relic. The particular relic in this book is the original Mother Goose stories. The Librarians and the descendants of the original Mother Goose are competing in the quest to find the powerful relic which has been divided into three volumes.
The plot is ok in the book and it does have plenty of action. You need to suspend all disbelief to get into the story. It has it's moments but it does read like a TV script.
It chronicles the adventures of the Librarians. These are not your stereotypical schoolmarm type librarians. This group of adventures are charged with gathering magical and mythical books, artifacts and treasures that may be too dangerous to be in the public domain.
This specific adventure focuses on Mother Goose tales and the dangers inherent in rhyming. There is very mild violence and lots of references to magical and mythical things.
The story line and plot are clearly meant for the younger reader.
It seems suitable for 4th or 5th graders.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
