    I love your close-up images. And yes, there is so much more to libraries than just books! You did such a great job capturing so many wonderful things little ones can get into in the library. Inspired me to check out Seattle’s downtown library soon with my little guy.

    I love libraries! There’s a special smell and feeling…like all the books would like to reveal their stories in my head. Unfortunately we can’t scan books yet, would save a lot of time.
    Your girls are so cute…Happy Sunday!

    Well you KNOW I love public libraries since I work at one. And you are soooo right, books are NOT the only reason to go.

        Wow. Louisiana doesn’t have libraries like that. Honduran libraries don’t even have books to check out. Just a few libraries in the entire country. And the books can’t leave.

    Hey Claudya! I enjoy these entries, and today’s is no exception. I loved libraries when I was a kid, and it’s nice to see your little one enjoying them too. I’ve added a link back to the SUNDAY IN MY CITY I did a while back; I must do a new one soon! Indigo x

    Well, you know I love the library! So many great activities, plus I think its a necessary part of childhood to be surrounded by lots of books 🙂 I love the felt figures! So bright and colorful! And I have mentioned how much I adore your daughters’ hair? I just love that curly hair, probably because mine is straight as can be…

    Love how she’s concentrating on that orange wheel.

    This community was so determined to have a library and the state wouldn’t provide one that they built it themselves in ’94. They’ve since become a part of the county library system, but continue to be staffed by volunteers (with volunteer led storytime) and have local fundraising to provide new books, computers and so forth.

    Lovely photos. So charming! I am late again for SIMC. But I was away Sat and Sun and have been down with a stomach bug today. It is a good thing there’s time before the linky ends.
