Books have always been a big deal to Austin. From the time he was old enough to sit up he has always been surrounded by books. Thankfully all of his brothers also love books. Announce that we are going to the library and everyone gets very excited.
We are lucky that we have a really great library in our town. The children’s section is big and bright and offers a large window seat for kids to sit on and look through their new found treasures.
Chase, while usually excited by the library, was particularly good this trip. He was quite serious about his book hunt. Then he discovered the pillows. He wanted to take the pillows home with him.
My favorite part is watching their curiosity as they scour the shelves.
I love the smell of books.

As a retired librarian, I thoroughly enjoyed your photos and comments on books and children.
