Alright, my friends, I cheated. I had .Gratz The Brooklyn Nine on my table to be read first in . But yesterday was a perfect day to read!! I know I always say his latest book is his best, but this one doesn’t disappoint. Such great stories and I ❤️❤️❤️ the ending. Hoping Snider finds out the provenance for the whole box of treasures. So glad included this book in our latest fair and my Gratz’ group of fans bought every copy. Must read for my 4th and 5th graders. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Yes, but do they have Diary of a Wimpy Kid or Dogman?? They have a few more than our 14,000+ books.

The Biblioteca Real Gabinete Portugues de Leitura (or Portuguese Royal Library) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is the largest and most valuable library of works by Portuguese authors outside of Portugal. Its collection, fully digitized, is around 350,000 volumes. For a real book lover’s treat in the bustling city of Rio de Janeiro, visit the library’s Royal Reading Room. Mostly ignored by the majority of tourist itineraries, it’s a beautiful spot to soak in Portuguese culture and architectural beauty.

BES has its share of Boston sports lovers. I ❤️ my Ravens fan and even, gulp, my NY fan but I just can’t be in the same picture as a Yankees jersey.

Happy Halloween from BES!! Me and my Bruins Bling and bear ears and Oliver as everyone’s favorite Charlie Brown. Wish I could talk like his teacher did in the old movies 🤪

Took class out on a bit of a chilly morning to read The Bad Seed Goes to the Library by and illustrated by . These Kinders loved the book, but were concerned with identifying all of the seeds.
