After a month of listening to books for our March Book Madness, Friday was the day of our finals! Students joined both virtually and in the media center to vote live. Magic Ramen in the lead throughout the month, but the ultimate winner was I Do Not Eat Children @marcuscutler.bsky.social! So fun!

Last week I read Be a King to first grade students in the #mediacenter, and had a very thoughtful discussion about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Then they showed that they also “have decided to stick with love”. ❤️ #skylibrarian #picturebooks #DrKing #booksky
