It's Pet Pick Friday and for our staff pick, we have Orion! As named, he hunted down a couple different books for his mother to read. One was inspired by his own noble visage, "The Last Tiger" by Brad and Julia Riew, and the second was inspired by his tremendous roars, "Jurassic Park" by Michael Crichton.

Books are portable, entertaining, and perfect accessories to any outfit, whether on the red carpet or not. Where have you taken your library books lately?

What's everyone reading this weekend?

Arrr, matey, it do be true! Mango Languages gives you FREE access to 70+ languages. Spanish for your next adventure. French for your inner Parisian. And Pirate for...well, parrot-related emergencies.

All you need is your library card. Start learning today!

Video Description: A pirate runs through the Library and asks two employees for help finding a book on parrot care. One employee understands her perfectly and points her in the right direction. When the other asks how she understood Pirate, she reveals she learned it through Mango Languages. "The Wellerman (Pirate Edition)" by Hurley & Die Pulveraffen plays in the background.

It's Pet Pick Friday and for our staff picks, we have two very excitable friends! Bella rated their parent's most recent reading of "Gato Guapo" by Anika Aldamuy Denise at a 7/10 (because she never gives anything higher than a 7). Dogmeat on the other paw decided it deserved a 100000000/10, so the scores average out!
