Art Activity

Every community is different as I’ve come to realize just bouncing from library to library.  So my first story time was actually November 8th, but I can’t say that I was so thrilled about it that I immediately wanted to throw this on the Bookshelf.  First story time at my library and it was… meh.  Apparently the “regulars” have been trained to interact.  Not all horrible, but I’m not the patient librarian that looks kindly upon children that interrupt EVERY sentence.  Ah well.  I just have to break them of the habit?  It’s fine to participate, but you are so totally ruining the plot.  Please don’t hand me books either.  I know from experience that if I dislike Max and Ruby, I will continue to do so.  You will know that I dislike Max and Ruby since nothing particularly “magical” happens to the story.

Anyways, very different story time styles from the last person.  I cheated on my art activity and pulled the toilet paper roll elephant.  I like elephants.  They’re up there with giraffes for me, so yay elephants.  No for Christmas stories before Thanksgiving.  =T  We’ll see what the next regular story time brings.
