By using "developmentally relevant" instead of "age appropriate", we emphasize the professionalism of the educators' valuation of materials & their professional assessment of their students, while also removing the idea that every student is a little kid who needs to be coddled.

Omg I love CRUNCH!

Frankly, if you're doing anything for Banned Books Week, it has to be more than just books. Use the week to activate your patrons and tell them why bans are part of a larger push toward fascism and queer genocide.

It’s so cute! (though I might be biased as a children’s librarian myself)

I’m a public youth librarian and ditching dewey at every library I work at is my dream. That’s awesome that you accomplished that!! Also a big fan of picture book categories and grouping level readers by their levels

I haven’t! 👀 but I will now ☺️

Absolutely agree and get your point, but I suggest checking with your local library! They might have it on disc or even through a library streaming service like Kanopy or Hoopla
