despite the fact that this book had been curated in parts of my childhood neighbourhood; elementary school, and local library. i really wanted to be a librarian but this book just gives me those wild dreamy feels again and will happily share this with with cousins and kids.

First printed in 2003, these were the libraries of my youth, where there was VHS instead of DVD, and the card catalog wasn't a touch screen. We've come a long way since the early 2000s, providing more access and more resources than ever before.

A bit out of date.
