So excited we have a SIGNED copy!

So excited for this one!

A G R E E D !

This is the most amazing thing I’ve seen in 4.5 yrs in the Library.

A student read MISFITS @lisayee.bsky.social & then returned it with this note tucked inside.

Another student checked it out today, saw the note & was SO excited to read it!
❤️📚❤️📚❤️📚

Wish I could remember who suggested tracking library books checked out- but THANK YOU!

We reached 10,000 on Feb. 3 and now we’re having a contest to see who can guess what the total will be on May 15.

We welcomed our 3rd author to @JGB_Giraffes this year.

2nd-5th graders got to meet @debrakshumaker.bsky.social and learn more about PECULIAR PRIMATES.

Awesome news today - @donorschoose.bsky.social project was fully funded!

Every 1st grader will receive a copy of BUTTONS ON THE LOOSE by
@lmurraybooks.bsky.social

What a great way to wrap up an author visit 😁

Thank you for the #BookMail @debrakshumaker.bsky.social !

Loved having @lmurraybooks.bsky.social visit with our readers last week!

Signed up on here a year ago but didn’t have the energy to learn about a new platform.

Giving it another go to see if I can find all the amazing #KidLit authors who ditched the other place.

Giving this one a try!
