As I was going through some summer photos on my camera, I discovered the adorable faces of last year's kindergarteners and first graders working on end-of-year activities. I forgot to post these at the time, but better late than never, especially with pictures as wonderful as these. Below you will see the Leo Lionni-inspired "Library Guard Mice" created by the first graders after completing their author study of the award-winning children's writer and illustrator. The kindergarteners are pictured with their Mo Willems' doodles. They doodled on table-sized sheets of butcher paper after learning that Mo Willems likes to do this with his family. The students found out that the alligator from Amanda & Her Alligator was first created as part of a Willems' family doodling session.

Thank you so much to these fabulous first graders for their birthday book donations! I couldn't be more excited about the two new Oliver Jeffers books, plus a historical fiction story of the California Gold Rush, and who doesn't love Fancy Nancy? The first grade class had been very generous with birthday books this year and I am very grateful to them and to Mrs. Anderson for their support of the library.
