I finally went to the library that is closest to our new house (almost a year later - ha!). I've been putting it off because I thought it was too much of a drive & it's hard to mix a library trip with a grocery store trip.
Well, I should have gone a long time ago because it really is a nice library! They even have a cafe that serves ice cream sourced from a local shop - how can you beat that? They have a large children's section and it seems like they have a lot of events and story times for children. I will have to keep that in mind this summer when I have all of the kids home with me and we're looking for something to do to escape the heat.
I'm really glad I was able to scope it out without the kids today. It gave me a chance to walk around and check it out without any distractions.
Without further ado, here's what I came home with:
I actually got three books for me as well. I've been mostly reading books on my Kindle, but the free books available have been getting kind of tired for me so I was happy to reserve some books at the library and have them waiting for me on the shelf with my name on them. :-) Oh, I check out The Sewing Bible several times a year - I love this resource! I really should buy it one of these days...
For the kids, I brought home:
- Hello Baby! by Lizzy Rockwell
- Rick Is Sick by David McPhail (for Jack to read)
- Jack and Rick by David McPhail (also for Jack to read - can't believe I'm writing that)
- Carolinda Clatter! by Mordicai Gerstein - this one came with a CD
- Ogres! Ogres Ogres! by Nicholas Heller
- Danny and the Dinosaur (DVD)
More about the blue bag next post!
