It could also be argued that Parker represents Schneider's ideal self and Nichols represents Schneider's self-perception.

Text reads, "Library kids are NOT in a hurry to read banned books" There are so many reluctant readers out there. They need & deserve access to as many books as possible.

It will be difficult for them to try again It doesn't matter to them if a book is banned. It matters if they like the book.

My New Year's Day tradition is listening to George Michael.

What if we kissed at the
SMOKE STATION

I hereby declare by the power vested in me as a full-fledged librarian that any New Year's resolutions involving books are granted the power of flexibility to modify based on everchanging life circumstances.
