Ms. Evelyn Hands Out Wallets


Last summer at one of our stops, lots of children got to see a bookmobile for the very first time! They browsed through lots of good books, and kids that had their library cards with them got to take items home for 4 weeks! Everyone got one of our fun purple wallets, too.

If you don't yet have a library card, you can get one on the bookmobile! Parents and guardians--just come aboard and show your photo ID and proof of current address, and you and your children can get your new cards on the spot!

Back to School!

I love seeing all the kids lately coming on board after school and getting a book to take home for fun! While I've got plenty of stuff for adults, there's nothing that warms my heart more than watching a child hug their book with a huge smile on their face as they walk down my stairs to take that book home.

(Speaking of my stairs, I also think it's great when the kids watch my "magic" stairs come out and fold back up again.)
