Every school & every community needs a library & a librarian, to help every single child find the books that will make them readers. Those are the books that will change their lives - and maybe even save their lives! #libraries #librarians #literacy #booksky

Just a reminder that the books we call "children's books" are really books written for an audience that includes children, but excludes absolutely no-one at all. They are BOOKS FOR EVERYONE - and you can never, ever be too old to read them, and to love them!
