A trip to the library





We discovered our neighborhood library two weeks ago! We have been in our new home three years but have not been to the library in our area. So when Lizzy came home from school and had lost her school library book that she had to read by Friday (this was Wed.) I said, lets go check at the library. Well, they did have a copy! We all got library cards and a handful of books and a couple of movies. It was a great hour exploring a new library. I think we will be making some trips there this summer, esp. since the night before the last day of school Markie picked up his Incredible Hulk book and started reading it all by himself! Yeah Markie. Back to that book Lizzy needed, she did not finish it by Friday, we made a big effort, but 136 pages was too much for her in two nights, the book was called A Chimp Called Friday and it is quite good. She got close though and finished it over the weekend. Then she left it in her backpack on the floor and Rascal ate it. So I have to buy it now. Oh, the good news is she found the one from the school library she had lost and returned it. The copy Rascal ate is still readable, just not returnable.
