Books to grow up on

Working in the youth department allows me to re-live my childhood everyday. I can pick up certain books on a shelf and remember exactly when I read them as a child and young adult. Throughout elementary school, I was fortunate to work in our school library. I loved going through the new books and putting away familar books. Discovering a new book to read was always a thrill. You could never go wrong with Dr. Seuss, Judy Blume or Carolyne Keene(especially if you were just hankering for a mystery to solve!).

I encourage all the children to visit the youth department and find that special book which will provide wonderful memories down the road. Our collection has been growing over the past few months, so I know that there is a book waiting for you right now. So, put down your game controller and pick up your library card. See you soon!
