My library return days are so satisfying. Here’s just what my kids liked….

1. A couple of Lou’s reads from his OWL sexuality curriculum
2. Stuff I read to Lou, the feel goods, the SEL books
3. The rest of Lou’s Trans Day of Visibility stack + a set of our partnered readers
4. More partner readers for Lou & Mom
5. Lou’s science reading slash stuff to psych him up for gardening season
6. Finally something from Arch! He finished another book off his G5 reading stack plus 100 Big Nate, books for fun
7. Lots of beautiful reads to uplift his transatlantic Slave trade history lessons
8. More supplemental history reading for Arch
9. And last but not least, Archie’s current science reads to support the Geology unit we’re working through.

❤️We couldn’t survive without public libraries. Save them all ❤️
