We got a book returned with a squished Cheeto in the middle.

"Cheetos don't make great bookmarks, use a real bookmark next time."
"My friend was eating Cheetos near my book!"

This child shall now be called Cheeto. Forever.
Me: So this book you returned has a big lump in the center. I opened it to find several pages glued together by what appears to be a chunk of soft pretzel.

S: But I don't eat soft pretzels.

Me: Kinda missing the point, friend...

🙄😂

All reading is good reading! Read a magazine, read a pamphlet, read signs wherever you go. Read on Sora, read on Comics Plus!
Reading comics counts as reading. Reading graphic novels counts as reading. Reading fan fiction counts as reading. Listening to audio books counts as reading. Reading a 10k word Tumblr treatise on Star Trek/Dr Who parallels counts as reading.

“I stayed up for five hours last night to finish this!“ Yellowjackets are a big fan of The Naturals series, especially the 8th grader who returned this with such enthusiasm this morning. #middleschoollibrary #readYA #thenaturals #killerinstinct #jenniferlynnbarnes @apslibrarians.bsky.social

Thanks for reading 6/7 days a week! ALL reading is great! E-books, audiobooks, print books, magazines (have you looked at the magazines in Sora?), graphic novels, and much more. We love that you read in any way that works for you. #middleschoollibrary #librarydisplay @apslibrarians.bsky.social

Not every book is for every reader- and that's ok!
A student told me in the funniest way today a book was not for them.
