We finally made it to the local library recently. I love the library, but I have no business taking out books. I always end up with a fine. Back home, in Ohio, the library would forgive fines once a year. That's great, because I found a book in a box once that I had for 6 years. Horrible, because no one else can check out that book. I eventually did return it. But, the library already forgave and forgot it years before. Not in the DC area though. If you have a fine, there is no cap for how high your fines can go, and then they turn you over to a collection agency! Whoa!
As I've gotten older, I've gotten more responsible. I learned that if I just take the books back before the due date that I don't have to deal with the whole late fee thing. And then, I can take out more books without shelling out a bunch of cash! I'm brilliant before my time, I know.
Anyhow, after we got a library card, we picked out a library book to read to Lily. I wanted one with pictures of animals she has seen before and pictures of animals she hasn't seen before. Last week, we got "Little Pink Pup", which is a true story. This week, we picked up "What's in the Egg, Little Pip?" I have to admit, the covers are a huge draw!
