Reading on the Wild Side
What’s the clue for you that summer has started? Is it the first cicada, the smell of Aeroguard or the drone of cricket on the TV/radio? For me it’s all of those plus the sure knowledge that Summer Reading Club has commenced!
At our staff meeting this morning Lisa, our ever enthusiastic Children’s Librarian, ran us through the plan and did show and tell with the merchandise. Those on the desk have been coerced into wearing a “Read on the Wild Side” badge and in my Presidential role one was passed to me with a “put this on”! I’d forgotten I had accessorised in library mode it until someone commented on it at lunch time - bit like wearing your name badge into the sandwich shop “would you like salt on that Jan?”! However it was a great way to generate some publicity so maybe it will become part of my summer wardrobe.
If you haven’t had a look check out the web site and start reading! - and with Christmas just around the corner think ’books’ for presents. There speaks the wife of a bookseller 
Cheers
