Do you remember your favorite books as a child? Perhaps you remember reading your own child's favorite books over and over again. Our school has those same beloved books. They are currently held together with book tape and prayer.
There are just some books that never lose their appeal. Books by Dr. Seuss and Eric Carle, the Henry & Mudge books, No David! books, the Arthur series and the Junie B Jones series are all cherished by our students, as are many more. These authors and series are read over and over.
The easiest way to encourage children to read at school and home is to have familiar characters and authors they can check out again and again. When our students are reading at home then rushing into the library every morning to get the next book in a series, we know they are becoming better readers.
Unfortunately because of budget cuts, the funds the library receives to replace books and buy new books is very limited. When faced with the choice of buying a new book or replacing a tattered book, I'm afraid we heave a deep sigh and get out the binding glue and book tape to try and get another school year out of our 'Beloved, Battered and Broken Books.'
