I’m caught up in election fever. It’s a buzz that you can feel throughout the library as conversations turn to how long lines will be, though no one says that they will NOT vote. For some reason it has become cool to be hooked in, to vote, to decide.
So I took some of my favorite words of the election. The ones that are part of that buzz. And put them into our library catalog looking only for children’s books.
"Hope" brought me books on spring, fathers, mermaids, and wimpy kids.
"Change" pulled up stars and moons, Lizzie Bright, Legos, and trees of peace.
"Yes" was filled with cartoons, potty books, parties and science.
"Victory" had knights, racing cars, dancing, and lots of history.
Sounds to me like a pretty good mix.
Ahhhh — the gift of being a librarian. Research, then creativity. What a poetic response to this historic day. Thanks!

Funny! our new president is bringing legos and potty books…”Yes I can!” does sound a bit like the latter.
Someday I will read Lizzie Bright…
