Summer subbing

Turns out summer school needs librarians sometimes too! Dragon and I are aving great fun with some preschoolers this week. As one of the classes lined up to depart the library yesterday, one of the young lads asked somewhat plaintively, "Will we ever see Dragon again?"

Dragon is a cheeky, and I suspect, disrespectable fellow but he does leave an impression with kids.

It is even more fun for me to dive into the libarian's box of new books. (She said it was ok, honest. I'm cleaning up the marc records.) Very interesting to see what she is buying multiple copies of. * Lots of Book Moot recomendations too!

There is nothing like the smell of new books coming out of their wrappings with beautiful Bound to Stay Bound laminated covers. Heaven!

"libarian" - what a funny typo! I told my students they could call me by my name, my initial or Mrs. Librarian, but I wouldn't answer to Mrs. Libarian!

One of my library friends always refers to himself as a "libarian." He has done so for over 20 years. I think he likes it because it rhymes with "barbarian."

Some may feel squeamish about eating it, but rabbit has a fan base that grows as cooks discover how easy they are to raise — and how good the meat tastes.
