Good morning! Can you believe this is the first Morning Meandering in a week? Last week was all banned books week… all week. 😀 After a crazy busy and fun weekend I made it home yesterday afternoon tired but happy. Pictures from the bike ride will show up on Saturday.
Yesterday afternoon I took down the Banned Books display from the library and brought “My Precious” books home and switched out the window with “Spooktacuar Reads” for October for all ages. I put up a shelf of books for children, middle grade, young adults and adults. I use my own books or print covers of the books and put over a small box so that we don’t pull books off the library shelves – I wasn’t to be sure that if someone sees a book they would like to read, they have the opportunity to check it out – which yes, I also checked our on-line library catalog to be sure all the books int he window are books the library has. Yes, I can be anal. 😀
So here is a pic of that window:
I didn’t go all scary – but good mysteries and for the younger kids a couple about pumpkins too. 😀
I do have MANY winners yet to pick from Banned Book week but that is going to have to wait until tomorrow I will however tie up my giveaway from the Bloggiesta post, which is:
Kimberly of The Windy Pages!!!
Congratulations! 😀 I will get that sent off to you in the next couple of days here.
Today I work and tonight is our book club review of The Wizard Of Oz! Expect great pictures to show up from that one as I know a few of us…a re planning to dress up and you never know what can happen when the Bookies get together! It is going to be a busy – but fun day! 😀
The window looks good! You somehow manage to do all kinds of things! Maybe it’s the energy you’ve gained from all those bike rides….
LOL – I think it is the stubborn Irish and German blood in me… I cant say no… and I like to see things happen 🙂
You are a whirlwind! The window looks fantastic!
Thanks Kathy – I enjoy doing them.
Great window — and it pays to be anal sometimes. 🙂
Thanks Candice, I was there at 6 pm last night because I didn’t want to wait to switch out the window 😀
Great window! I have The Book Thief on my fall TBR list. And Cinder was one of my favorite reads so far in 2012! You’ve been a bit busy, now, haven’t you?
I have been a little busy…. LOL 😀
What an amazing job you did on that window. Such a great event, I’m already looking torwards next years event.
Thanks Tray and thanks for participating- your Green Eggs and Ham review was a hit!
I think it’s so neat that you get to do the displays! I’ve been allowed to work on a few bulletin boards at the library in the kids’ section, but it’s all pre-fabricated decor. 🙂
Thanks Alyce – I had went in to talk about the Banned Book week and mentioned the great window they did two years ago but nothing last year. When I expressed an interest in doing it they were thrilled and I am enjoying it 😀
Wow this is such a great display! Awesome job! 🙂
