Johanna Albrect

Children’s book buyer

Johanna has been a member of the McIntyre‘s team since the first Whirlikids BookFest in 2018. For over 7 years she has been a bookseller and storytime leader in the Triangle area. She loves picture books with special details in the art and quirky stories that come alive when they are shared with little listeners. For other age groups her favorite books to read and recommend are magical chapter books, intimate stories in contemporary young adult literature, and unique literary fiction with complex female voices. Johanna has also worked as a nanny for several years and her storytime attendees will know her as Johanna Banana!
