My Story

Hello, I'm Laura Cavanagh, and I'm passionate about the magic that happens when children fall in love with books. I started The Lupine Library with a simple belief: every child deserves a story that feels made just for them.

I was labeled as struggling to read when I was very young, but then I fell in love with beautiful picture books and dug deep into non-fiction masterpieces. My reading journey was fostered by people who understood that every child has their own path.

Why "Lupine"? Inspired by the children's Barbara Cooney's beloved book "Miss Rumphius" and its invitation to leave the world more beautiful. Lupines start small, grow strong, and brighten their surroundings — much like young readers discovering confidence and joy.

Why Choose The Lupine Library?

  • Personalized Approach: No two children are alike, and no two book recommendations should be either.
  • Quality Over Quantity: We focus on exceptional illustrations, compelling stories, and lasting value.
  • Age-Right, Stage-Right: We match books to each reader's stage to spark progress and joy.

The Lupine Library: Personalized selections. Beautiful books. A lifelong love of reading.

Why Early Reading Matters

Reading aloud from the very beginning builds strong foundations—for language, learning, and connection.

Language & vocabulary

Hearing rich, varied words in stories accelerates speech and comprehension.

Brain development

Rhythm, rhyme, and repetition strengthen neural pathways for learning.

Attention & readiness

Short, joyful read-alouds grow focus, memory, and school readiness.

Social–emotional growth

Stories spark empathy, curiosity, and problem-solving.

Family connection

A daily reading ritual creates calm, closeness, and positive associations with books.

Just 10–15 minutes a day makes a measurable difference. Start small, stay consistent, and let beautiful books do their quiet, powerful work.
