Yeah, do it for the kids!


My grandsons and I were doing some last-minute Christmas shopping a couple of days ago. Traffic was crazy, and one driver, impatient with the person in front of him, honked loudly.

"Geez," I said, "give the guy a break. It's Christmas!"

"Yeah," chimed in Jake, my six-year-old. "Do it for the kids!"

And when you think of it, that pretty much sums up a great library philosophy. Thanks for the reminder, Jake.

    When I was new to the education profession, I taught with a veteran teacher who always said so many of her valuable teaching nuggets came from students. I agree!
