@rhymeswhannah Have you seen the video of a naturalist reading this with actual baby owls? It is amazing. This book is so sweet. 💛

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@rhymeswhannah SO important to take care of yourself right now (and anytime)—plus, you will probably plan a better program if you focus on one instead of having to make backup plans. Families will be so thankful to still have summer reading! 🌼☀️

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@rhymeswhannah Not sure if this is what you’re looking for, but I love the picture book Maybe Tomorrow? by Charlotte Agell! It’s a sweet story and a good way to start discussing how grief affects life.

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@Jess_Keating I can’t wait to talk about this one with my students! They are going to be intrigued by this real-world pandemic connection. 😂

One of today’s highlights was seeing some amazing quiet reading from all of my students after checkout today. I love that they’re reading, but I also love that this means they found books they can’t wait to read. #schoollibrary

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@rhymeswhannah Feel better!! Irrigate those sinuses!

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@kenardpak @dustdancestoo @MacKidsBooks Yay! We love these books!

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@dustdancestoo Yes! Sometimes you NEED a book, sometimes a certain book, and you can’t stop thinking about it til you’ve read it. Just like when you’re hungry.

Stories are a basic human need.

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@rhymeswhannah Feel better! I am feeling the same way today!

[Jonathan Stutzman @dustdancestoo]

Read more books, read less phones.

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@SarahMlynowski Oh my gosh! My students are going to be SO excited! (I am, too.☺️)

[Kristin @evrydaylibrary]

@eminencefont Definitely! Having a purpose also helps in evaluating the effectiveness of something new—did it achieve what you were hoping?
