Since yesterday was the kickoff to National Library Week, you will probably not be surprised to hear that our post theme today is all about libraries, librarians, and books. Today our focus is on some of our favorite kids' books that are especially related to libraries and reading.
Amelia Bedelia, Bookworm by Herman Parish. Our favorite scatterbrained housekeeper returns in this installment of the easy-reader series, and she's determined to provide her local librarian a helping hand...
