Library

This afternoon we headed to our local library to get Isabel her first library card. She’s been to the library before but this time was different because she can now read her own books and pick them out herself. She was excited to get inside…

Once inside she went up to a librarian (on her own!) and asked her if they had any “Judy Moody” book by Megan McDonald (her new favorite character). The library had about 6 or 7 books on the shelf. She picked out 1 and then we headed over to another section to get a “Sophie” book by Lara Bergen. We also discovered a section divided into holidays (Thanksgiving, Easter, Valentines, etc.), from this section, she picked out a Amelia Bedelia Christmas book as well.

After deciding to get 3 for now, we headed over to the information desk to get a card. I had to get an account first and then add Isabel under my account. She was so excited!!! After checking out her books, we headed home. She can keep her books for 3 weeks, but I think we’ll be heading back before then to get new ones!

She got to pick her own design of card. She chose a flower, while I chose the dragonfly. She can check out 100 books on her card, but I’m not going to tell her that!
