National Library Shelfie Day!

By

Yesterday was National Library Shelfie Day! This fun holiday was created by the New York Public Library in 2014 and has continued ever year since, on the 4th Wednesday in January. What is Library Shelfie Day? Library Shelfie day is a day to take a selfie in front of your favorite library shelf and share it on social media with the hashtag #LibraryShelfieDay. This can either be a shelf at your public library, your own personal home library, or a favorite book store. This is a way to celebrate the importance of libraries in the community and share your love of books!

Ways to celebrate National Shelfie Day:

1.) Take a selfie in front of your favorite bookshelf at the Provo Library and share it on social media with the hashtag #LibraryShelfieDay & #ProvoLibrary.

2.) Come to the Provo Library and check out some books or renew your library card if it has been a while.

3.) Reorganize your own personal home library and get reacquainted with the books you own.

4.) Visit a local book store and browse the shelves to find a new book to add to your collection.

5.) Share a picture of some of your favorite books and tell why you love them.

Below are a few pictures of some of our librarians celebrating National Shelfie Day this year at the Provo Library!

If there's one book today's kids need to read, it is Dude, That's Rude! (Get Some Manners) . The authors provide a fun format for teaching etiquette to children. They discuss proper behavior at home, at school, at other people's homes and in public places. The information is completely up-to-date with cellphone manners and netiquette included. Fun, cartoony illustrations are on practically every page giving the book great visual appeal. This book is perfect for boys and girls in the fourth grade or older.

Faces of the Moon by Bob Crelin

By loo
Faces of the Moon by Bob Crelin Illustrated by Leslie Evans Charlesburg; 2009; unpaged Faces of the Moon is a short nonfiction book that describes the different phases of the moon and why the moon appears like it does on certain nights. This book is short and sweet so even the youngest of moon lovers will enjoy it. The layout is simplistic and easy to follow. I don’t know much about the moon so I found it very interesting.

The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester 2008

By Anonymous
J Fiction 328 pages I almost didn't finish this book. I got to Chapter 4, and was just about ready to quit (a kind of slow story about a girl, name of Piper McCloud, who discovers she can fly, parents freak out, she becomes a social outcast, yadda, yadda) but suddenly, right there in Chapter 4, the story takes a sharp turn and becomes really interesting . Piper finds herself in the company of others like her, but not "fliers", and under the care and authority of Dr. Hellion. I won't even tell you any more. Read this book. Forester does a great job of keeping you wondering who's the good guy and who's the bad? Piper is a likeable, strong, endearing character that girl readers will enjoy. But don't NOT give it to boys! The main male character is an extremely intelligent young man who is one of the ones you wonder about . . . good or bad? This is a good one, well worth your time.
