I am also excited for Laura as she begins her new adventure - she is going to be amazing in her new position! Saying goodbye will be tough, even though it's a happy one. This got me thinking about all of the wonderful picture books that address the various ways we can experience goodbye - good and bad, happy and sad. Here are a few of my favourites:
Hi everyone! My name is Christy, I am a librarian, and I LOVE children’s books. I am extremely excited to be joining this blog and getting the opportunity to share my love of books, reading, and libraries with all of you.
I am also excited for Laura as she begins her new adventure - she is going to be amazing in her new position! Saying goodbye will be tough, even though it's a happy one. This got me thinking about all of the wonderful picture books that address the various ways we can experience goodbye - good and bad, happy and sad. Here are a few of my favourites: I love picture books. I am a real, grown up adult, but I absolutely love the storytelling, art, and life lessons that make up great picture books. I really love writing about picture books and have used this wee blog to share some of my favourites over the past few years. It has always been my happy place. Fitting a few sentences about a great new picture book in between scheduling, performance appraisals, meetings, and all of the other things that library managers have to do has given me a great deal of pleasure; but, alas, all good things come to end. I am off to a new adventure in a different library, and I think it is going to be even harder to fit in some picture book time.
The good news is another librarian who also loves books for children and teens will be found here and she will share some of her favourites with you. I leave you with a few of the forthcoming picture books that I have been looking forward to, which I would have written about, and which you should put on hold now! Happy reading Kitchener! Laura |
