We took A-chan to the library for the very first time the other day. Yes, it really did take us almost 2.5 years to get her there! I'm a book store girl, returning books is anathema to me - even though I worked in libraries for a few years :) The biggest obstacle is time, we're always packing as much stuff into our forays out of the house as we can so that we only go out once or maybe twice a week. And then there was the problem of finding sneaky shoes as taking her in her very happy but very loud squeaky shoes was not going to happen. We did finally find shoes that made no noise but had no leather that she liked and fit her properly, w00t!
Here are the books that we checked out for her this first time with ratings in front...
4 I am a Hindu
4 Religions of the World: Hinduism
2 Origami: Myths and Legends
9 Sheep on a Ship
9 Sheep in a Shop
7 Toot and Puddle
9 The Paper Dragon
5 What to Expect When You Use the Potty
5 The Slumber Party
8 Anklet for a Princess

The best part of going to the library for A-chan was the stairs. Up and down, up and down and did you know that stairs go up and down? We tested them several times just to be sure we understood how they work.
The best part of going to the library for me is having new, never before read books to read!!!! We realized last week that I wasn't even looking at her books to read them anymore, I'd memorized most of them - that's when I decided to look for sneaky shoes in earnest.
