The Giver of Stars written by JoJo Meyers is based on real-life women who clutched parcels of books as they negotiated the rough and mountainous terrain of Kentucky on horses. The Pack Horse Library Project was a Works Progress Administration (WPA) program that delivered books to remote regions in the Appalachian Mountains between 1935 and 1943. The topics in the novel were many including class inequity, literacy, race, relationships between men and women and the role of women in society.
