Library Day
Book - 2016
Author Anne Rockwell celebrates books, the love of reading, and of course, libraries, with a picture book about a child's first visit to the library! One day, a young boy visits the library for the very first time. While he's there he listens to stories, reads books and magazines, and learns that there are also movies, crafts, chess, and puppet shows--something for everyone! With simple, lyrical text and bright illustrations that jump off the page, Library Day brings the joys of reading vividly to life.

Add a CommentEarly childhood is packed with "firsts," though few are as memorable for young book-lovers as a first visit to the library. Created by a mother-daughter duo, Library Day stars another parent-child pair: a little boy and his dad, arriving at the library together for the first time. Inside, the boy discovers the delights of storytime and making new friends, followed by the satisfaction of selecting books for himself and the excitement of checking them out with his brand-new library card. Similar to Anna McQuinn's Lola at the Library, Library Day eases children into a new experience through a story that's upbeat, colourful, and filled with comforting predictability.
