I don't have HBO so I haven't seen the show, but I do love hockey romance and the entire series is currently available with no wait at the library. Not sure if this is an HBO promotion or a Libby promotion but yeah.

Anyone else get Heated Rivalry from the library only to realize it's the second book in the series? Heading back to Libby to borrow Game Changers first.

I saved my poster from last year for this weekend since I knew it would still be relevant. It might actually be more relevant this year since I didn't know the title for part 2 when I made it.

This is incredible. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is available for school licensing.

I feel like this is really early for a show to begin licensing so it's incredible to see. Can't wait for the first student play to be presented.

Awesome resource from #NYCC. These are comic books for Social Studies and Civics in tons of grade levels and units.

They were giving out free printed copies but they said all the comic books are free in their digital library for all. So check it out.

Dr. Becky on Instagram: "Last weekend, I watched KPop Demon Hunters with my kids. At first, it felt like one of those โ€œsit back and enjoy the rideโ€ movies. But a few minutes in, I realized it was about something much deeper. Rumi, the main character, hides glowing patterns on her arms - proof sheโ€™s โ€œpart demon.โ€ Beneath her stardom, she fears this part makes her unlovable, unworthy, unsafe. So she hides it. Thatโ€™s shame in its truest form: the fear that a part of us makes us unconnectable to others. The villain, Gwi-ma, doesnโ€™t attack with weapons, but with whispers of shame: Youโ€™re not enough. You donโ€™t belong. The turning point? Rumi shows what sheโ€™s been hiding - and instead of rejection, her friends pull her closer. Maybe thatโ€™s why kids (and adults!) are connecting so deeply. Yes, the movie is beautiful and the music is fun โ€” but really, itโ€™s about the dream every kid carries: Can I show all of myself and still be loved? As parents, this is where we get to take the story off the screen and into real life. Not with lectures or big โ€œtalks,โ€ but with small moments of wondering out loud. Pausing the movie to ask questions, or even just reminding our kids in everyday moments: Thereโ€™s nothing you could tell me that would make me love you less. If youโ€™re not sure of the age-appropriate of the movie for your child, my suggestion is to watch the movie yourself first (youโ€™ll get something out of it as an adult!) to figure out if itโ€™s something you want to watch with your kid.

I grew up in New York, about 35 miles from the Twin Towers. On September 11th, we could see the smoke from our town on Long Island. Even now, 24 years later, the memories of that day remain vivid. We still carry the weight of that day and honor the friends and family we lost. #September11th

Baseball players donโ€™t danceโ€ฆwell that was always the case with transitional baseball, but not in Bananaland. The first step was to convince the players to dance, and that was not easy.

Labor Day Honoring those who keep this country running.

Labor Day is the unofficial end of summer. However, it's more than just a celebration of summer. In 1894, Congress passed an act to declare the first Monday in September as Labor Day, with President Grover Cleveland signing it into law. Honoring those that literally built this country.
