I can't quite believe this is my last three days at school.
25 years as a school librarian and 15 years here at @WA_Library_ I am finally hanging up my date stamp and retiring. So many emotions!

RIP Eric Carle. The Very Hungry Caterpillar was one of the first books I read to my children many moons ago and it is the first book I have bought for my baby Grandson #RememberingEricCarle

[Penguin Kids @penguinkids]

It is with heavy hearts that we share that Eric Carle, author & illustrator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and many other beloved classics, passed away on May 23rd at the age of 91.

Thank you for sharing your great talent with generations of young readers. #RememberingEricCarle

Are there any professional sports people who could send a short message to my students for World Book Day?
Due to lockdown I’m having to adapt my Sports themed book event to a virtual one and would love to inspire my students with your messages.
