I can't keep the thread up, but suffice to say, PEOPLE VOTED TO PROTECT AND FUND LIBRARIES AND SO MANY SCHOOL BOARD ELECTIONS SUPPORTED PRO-EDUCATION, PRO-STUDENT CANDIDATES.

People showed up. They didn't just buy banned books. They VOTED.

And guess what?

Voting made a difference.

Frog and Toad gleefully look at Toad's garden, where little green plants are sprouting. From "The Garden" In *Frog and Toad Together*

“Toad, Toad, wake up,” said Frog. “Look at your garden!”

Toad looked at his garden. Little green plants were coming up out of the ground.

Good morning to everyone, but especially to all the jellyfish, for today is their special day!

This coloured plate by Philip Henry Gosse is from the book 'A Naturalist's Rambles on the Devonshire Coast' (1853).

Frog jumps up and down in Toad's jaunty green jacket, which is covered in buttons. From "A Lost Button" In *Frog and Toad Are Friends*

The next day Toad gave his jacket to Frog. Frog thought that it was beautiful. He put it on and jumped for joy. None of the buttons fell off. Toad had sewed them on very well.
