Some people laugh at me when I tell them I have a librarian action figure on my desk at work. She has a push button “shushing” action too. They usually stop laughing when I tell them I also have the deluxe librarian action figure. For the record, the action figure is based on real life librarian Nancy Pearl.
If you have an urge to own your own literary action figure but librarians aren’t your thing, you can choose from Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, Oscar Wilde, William Shakespeare, or Edgar Allan Poe. See them all here. If you want a non-book related action figure, you can also grab Marie Antoinette, Houdini, Sigmund Freud, and plenty more.

I am, of course, still trying to get “Batgirl Barbie” which I think is probably nancy pearl in disguide!
For those wondering about this comment – do some research about the profession of Batgirl’s alter ego.
