Things I Am Realizing As I Spend Five Days as an Elementary School Librarian, The List:

Throwback to November 19-20, 2012

1. Once a book is removed from the shelf, no child is capable of re-shelving the book back into the correct place.

2. Incorrectly re-shelved books drive me crazy until I put them in the proper place.

3. Levar Burton was adorable back in the Reading Rainbow days.

4. Every day, at least one student asks me where the shark books are located.

5. The phrase “graphic novel” no longer means a torrid Harlequin romance.

6. The word “butt” always makes them giggle.

7. The comfort level of a beanbag chair is inversely proportional to one’s age and weight.
