If you are around the Carver area this Saturday make sure you head to the Library and we will have a blast! I look forward to seeing the crowd that comes – don’t let the snow stop you – and if you decide to come… I will keep you laughing… which will keep you warm… I think.

With so much snow pouring on our beautiful neck of the woods – it seems my house is sprouting it’s very own icicle garden! I’ve had the past few days to relax thanks to all of the snow fall – but I am ready to get back to work! So – it’s time to stop snowing, SNOW!
I do have to say – there is nothing better than waking up early, only to find out you can go back to bed, and your bed is still warm! LOVE IT! But seriously, it’s enough – time to get back out there…

| Title: | I’m Not Sleepy |
| Author: | Jonathan Allen |
| Publisher: | Hyperion Books |
I am more than excited to find really cute books that also have more of a simplistic drawing style. I like how the illustrator used fingerprints for the character’s bodies. Sometimes, when I had a classroom, I would allow the children to take a piece of paper and some crayons into circle as I read a story. They could choose thier favorite picture and try to draw it – I would choose books that have beautiful but more simplistic art like Eric Carle, Leo Lionni – and that’s exactly what came to mind as I skimmed through this book. It’s the perfect book to do that activity to.
