get a start remembering to say that everything that's happening in your youth services to better that's perfectly ok thanks all right so here we go all right so we do both for episodes do you change clothes and i said no we don't change clothes i think we used to be used to bring a different shirt like dave the way we were actually really like caring about such things and i don't know what he said to me well that's ok because they wear the same clothes think because our show is so big we have to do the same thing so we're piecing it all to just appears that we look like we're wearing the same thing right ever so with that all right well we do but we have great people that help us so here we are buzz our library news yeah i want to do it sure i don't have something good over like this all right no way wait stop everything we can't do it yet i to you know of course great books but i really wanted to decorate ok member you know we've done things like like that and whatever oh i also well we'll be talking about my hello boy ok now i may or may not have just put the batteries in today and turned it on for the first there for now and then we'll move to globe because i know everybody's going to want to see him ok i think that's really tough to do i found a little girl ok there's our halloween decoration around the world we go this is actually is techie this tech and technology today for you know every time they come up with something new it just flips me out not only is this cool and new there's a library that actually talks about that has ten of them that starling is a new little gadget that you would would borrow well let me let me just back up lisa lisa crop wrote this and she starts it which i think is funny because we've been to different conventions and things so your precious at this and says some of you may recall my photo in january when i inadvertently made eye contact with a vendor at a o l a and wound up being when i don't want to buy that whatever you know what so i feel bad so i know where she's going for the styling this is crazy first of all let me just give you the price hundred forty nine dollars ok ok so it's within reach to have one of your own in the house or for us to get to have at the library it is a starling oh thank you for asking well first of all it is designed to help parents and caregivers talk more often to their babies toddlers and preschoolers so as she was intrigued and found out more information there she found out the pros and cons and it's a so here's what it does it assesses the how many words that the kids are learning and how many words they know this is crazy said starlings can be love first of all this library starling's can be loaned out to early learning program parents to offer caregivers a starting point to engage in more in depth meaningful conversation with the young child the device is also unique icebreaker for a librarian to a gauge in media and learn our early learning mentoring with the family so talks about it that is funny that's funny so how it works first of all my favorite thing that made me a star shaped unit clips to a toddler's shirt or waistband it's housed in a soft silicone attachment it pops out of the tact attachment easy enough so it's something inside of this attachment and s the normal charge that it lasts one to three days so here is what happens one of the things that they use this as a study to see the gap the word gap that people have the main look was to look they did this scientific research that actually says over thirty years that's some good research well that's a long time isn't they were they've found that there's a thirty million thirty million word gap between low income and upper middle class children entering kindergarten so that  million oh yeah you should see this sets goals for you to hear this so you can wear this device and then train the parents to read to them more and talk said that they'll learn these words learned some so this author disproportionate decided to try this so she used that she had one of her colleagues use it now this was interesting her colleague is words spoken and the the device actually counting and they count the spaces between the words you know to include words spoken in multiple languages the styling generates daily word c after analyzing the user's initial data over three to four days so you start started going and it's going to start keeping track of the different work they know which is so cool but listen to this like i guess maybe this is easier th it just hit me it to seem like a huge one to you gauge it they all start it all come up with a daily goal were goal for you to encourage more caregiver children react our interaction you know they're saying you know introduce ok so one of the goals was is to say introduce five hundred words more a day wow so i guess you're just you know reading goals they said using the devices enhanced early learning programs which is what we do they give so they give suggestions because listen to this i love the statistic in this is this so apply to you did you know that you'll spend approximately thirty eight thousand three hundred twenty five minutes changing diapers by the time your child is three years old married so what they're saying is use that time to engage with your child by narrating what are your doing talk talk with some you know sing songs in you know on and on and on and that's what they're saying when you're working with that you know when you're there she came up with the question and it's to give you the verdict of you know what her overall opinion on it there was a question about background noise like what if you hear all this stuff in the background i mean because it can pick up had the radio on in her car just to test it i love it that she came up with that and she said that it filtered out she said while not perfect but filtering was pretty  effective that you know in the room where people were talking it filtered it out it filtered out her radio blah blah blah so that's really cool i think we should get a couple and try them with maybe the mother goose they did mention that and said that they did mention it was something like that i think it's more of like one she is ok this is how she wrote it she said she would put it on her baby shirt or waistband when she first took our daughter out of the crib for the day once she established a routine with the device her daughter left it alone for the most part and it's very lightweight didn't get in the way of anything so that said she gives it a good report she said research clearly shows a link to future school success and the volume of words a child hears before entering school this makes the starling a potential game changer for libraries to help provide equal opportunity which is great equal opportunity you know that everybody no matter your income level would have an a chance to try this and use this and of all backgrounds to borrow a device and increase the time spent talking to their you know that produce a couple of things number one he took him literally and and kept saying talk and as far as that goes you know he knows at least one of the right that's funny that that's a cute story i'm glad that's where it was going right so that was that's my news today that's a good one i don't i'm interested to see how that would work i would i don't know if i want to buy one but i would want to you know you know what i'm going to suggest i'd like to try and especially because it came the idea came from the school library journal that we get a couple yeah and try them out and like just use lucas or you know what we have employees that have you know grandchildren or whatever homeschooler in our community that we also have a wonderful home school group that meets the second and fourth wednesday of the month from two three and three for each group of all currently it's younger elementary school kids but it's open up to all ages and so there's activities for the kids to homeschool parents to kind of meet together and exchange their ideas their thing too so if you're interested in finding out more just give us a call or stop in a c s it's the second and fourth wednesday of the month sounds good yeah they're doing a great job they are all starting up again very enthusiastic one of the things we wanted to bring up today because it's coming up quickly i always worth my little words my little flyer thing here it is i know this is really little and i think we might have something back there on it october twenty second shoot celebrating sixty years sixty year anniversary of the peter sancia the library it's insane it is pretty and they have been working diligently for a long time on this right they started before i knew we were around sixty years i mean it's just crazy so it's going to be an all day  it's on a sunday so we open it twelve so re twelve to it said about three seconds of time to clean up afterwards but it's going to be filled with people and a lot course in the children's department we are the most fun ever always we will be having entertainment as well so you bring your kids in for sure to celebrate the sixty s but then also will both be there  but i just want to make a perfectly clear that it's not like going into a fountain how does that make me on it's not like going into a haunted house right you know it's not going to be scary we're going to do yeah we're going to have fun we're bats monday night the thirtieth which is like the day before halloween so you can do like a preview of the how in costume you know how like you have to just kind of like try it on and sure everything is in sync the right and then remarkable exactly at six thirty on the thirtieth on monday and that's me there i'll be doing that and i'm looking forward to having fun i liked him the part i like doing parties different  mine has that makeup but what makeup on to try to be a different character does the price shannon to my face is white because the makeup was for crap  happened before the movie i do not know i always do that very well i have never even really seen them but star wars fans come in all ages so this is only haven't simply the teen room but just because it's in the tomb doesn't mean the younger kid couldn't read it or dalt actually miss patty's son in law checks out all four star wars books there's a hold on here for him yeah so do you want to get star wars book i want to share that's so interesting because what i wanted to look at was the picture you know if they would say anything about like the design well it says who designed it because you look at that and if you're talking about  honest i was a star wars fan for like the first two or three i like the original ones and then i don't know i'm not really into all that why old special effects things and how now it's all crazy and things are blowing it up i liked because it was so novel right think you know these little robots in r two d two and i like that they were originally and then i just kind of well they're would disqualify it as a graphic novel i have it i don't have it in graphic novels i put it in regular because all i think are the book what's the book called there's two of them and they're really sick and their children's books and there are a lot of pictures as well they're made into movies there's a lot of possibilities there like this big i don't know well anyway this is in our fiction because it has a lot a lot of pictures in it it has a lot of text and what i like in between each chapter with all that stuff they've just lacked pages so it's allowed to read a lonely girl in a new town this is of course halloween a lonely girl in a new town a ghostly figure in the window a derelict old house and a mystery spanning the decades and orphan faces a bully alone and while i don't cover your ears everybody i don't want to get any ideas and plots her revenge you know i get a totally advocate against pulling years later a girl catches glimpses of a figure in the window of a burned out the band in the old house and begins to unravel the mystery o it looks like a cool book i know it does oh no we're running out of time so can i mention this real quick yes i know you wanted to discuss this is coming up and we'll talk about it what we're able to talk about it in november what's the date november ninth we'll be able to talk at we are hosting world war i and i don't know an author bestselling trying to think new york bestseller author of home growing and her name is pronounced  you into gin generations from like a half sister that was sold into slavery that wasn't and she was and i don't know she just sounds amazing so this is going to be happening and we're expecting s we can keep talking which is nothing new thought rock talk talk talk talk talk talk talk to you know
