Picture of This Day


Yep, another reading picture. As I've told you before, I'll never tire of these. Buyer beware.

Once again he exchanged his library book on his own, after the official First Grade Library Day. Which is to say, the official library visit is on Wednesday every week, and the kids keep the book they get until the next week. But the librarian lets some first graders exchange their books with more frequency. We stopped in today after school since Kiernan finished the book he picked up yesterday...um...yesterday.

He picked a new book. A graphic novel this time.

As she checked the new book out for Kiernan the librarian smiled and asked, "Will you bring this back tomorrow? So you can check out another one?"

Kiernan, acting shy in this moment as he does, said, "Yes."

She smiled. "Because I imagine you'll finish this one in the car on the way home."

He smiled back and thanked her.

She wasn't far off.

Reminds me of "The Middle" episode where Brick found out a librarian was coming to Thanksgiving dinner. To his vapid teenage brother he said, "What about having a librarian over for dinner don't you understand?!"
