Welcome!
Secure a public library card.
I will be sending a weekly blog post with 5 book suggestions. I try to vary the offerings and include book trailers whenever possible. I will recommend books your child and family may want to read, as well as upcoming reading events your family may like to attend.
If I do my job well, there will be books your child wants to read, and the school library waiting list will be long. Your child will get frustrated due to the wait. With your public library card you can reserve the title online and get a notification within days to pick it up. You'll be your child's hero. Trust me on this.
