One for the Money the Movie

I went and saw One For the Money the Movie this past Saturday. It's about  Stephanie Plum who loses her job as a lingerie department manager only to become a bounty hunter for her morally loose cousin, Vinny Plum. Joe Morelli, a good-looking cop who Stephanie has a grudge against for something that happened behind the pastry counter in high school, goes FTA (doesn't appear in court) and Vinny wants him caught. Being new and inept at her job, however, might just get in the way of fulfilling an age-old grudge and cashing in on Joe's 100,000 bond. With death threats, cars going boom, and a hot guy to catch, this movie is sure to make you laugh. Cute show. I was impressed on how they kept in cleaning instead of accentuating more of the sexual innuendos. My dad even enjoyed it. I definitely wouldn't recommend it for children under 13, though.

Chinese New Year Storywalk

Our library has discovered a fun little passive program our patrons enjoy. It's called a story walk. This is probably the 12th storywalk we've done since Summer Reading started last year. How it works is we get permission from the publisher to display pages of a picture book up around the library for the kids to read. When they're done, they come up to the Information Desk to get a prize. It makes for a great passive program and our staff members seem to enjoy it. We always have a little something they have to do at the end of the walk to get their small treat or prize.

Welcome to My Blog!

This a blog dedicated to storytime fans, library junkies, and booklovers everywhere. Some will be about my crazy library day, storytime I've done, and book reviews. Others may just be random stuff. I'm not sure how regular I'll be at posting, but I'll try. Feel free to comment and say hello!
