@itspeterbrown We are an independent children's library in Bangalore, India. Wild Robot and indeed the other two books in the series are absolutely loved by our readers and the two librarians. We are waiting for the next book! The movie is good, but the book as always is better :)
Weekend at the library. A moment to take in this beauty before we open and the readers start rummaging. Did you take your child to a library today?

What an incredible and a happy year at our library. So many readers, thousands of books checked out and infinite joy that only books and libraries bring. Happy 2024 to all.

And meanwhile our children read on.. If there is a bright spot in our world, it is our community libraries where children find a safe space to read, to discuss books and spend time around books. Sharing a few pictures from our Swabhimaan Cosy Nook Community Library.

When The Day The Crayons Quit, came to life @NookCosy library. A fun and interactive performance by Living Books was enjoyed by children of all ages. Glorious Bangalore Sunday afternoon just made everything just perfect.

It's a quiet library day today, and since this book is not issued, this librarian is revisiting this favourite YA novel by @adibkhorram
Have you read it yet?
It was one of our library's 3rd birthday and this pandemic survivor celebrated with cake, lemonade, tea, and so much of love from our members, parents, and the kidlit community of the city. We are overwhelmed by all the love and our hearts are full (Not to mention our tummies)
A happy new book reading year from our cosy nook! In 2022 we grew in books and readers. Writerly visitors dropped in, we did book readings and discussions, recommended and issued so many books. Arranged our shelves to get it just right. We can't wait to start it all over again!
Weekend read aloud! Here's our librarian Radhika @radhikasathe reading from the beautiful and profound book Milo Imagines the World by @mattdelapena and @theartoffunnews Kids and parents all joined in to discuss every page and every nuance in the illustrations!
The librarians of @NookCosy Cosy Nook Library are two very happy women today. Here is our book haul at @blossombookhous. Picture taken by a friendly book shopper we met in the aisles and who chatted away merrily about out of control book collections.
Schools are closed, but our community library is working overtime so kids can come and read and do some writing practice.Libraries are for quiet reading, group discussions, storytime, and so much more. So proud of our librarian Wajida and our volunteers who help make this happen.
A wonderful afternoon of storytelling as part of @prathambooks One Day One Story initiative. Priya Muthukumar told the story of 'Croak' to an engaged, enthusiastic and much amused audience. Just look at the faces of some of our favourite little people! Stories are magic indeed!
The joy of unboxing! Thank you @ParagReads for this wonderful box of books for our community library. As you can see, the kids loved them so much they started reading right away! The joy of reading becomes even better when shared. Thank you Parag for doing what you do!
