that's all right you can spin it because i know where it is i have an idea where it was i just wanted to make sure i knew exactly on the globe or was this is coming from seeing the never see it up there norway nor what i knew is just so i don't know but this this is so cute because i mean obviously this is like this must be their version of a little free library because you go down the road and there's like those old shelves i don't know people i love how it's this article starts this is from by the way this article comes from travel and leisure dot com and written by kaylee rizzo people are the worst sometimes she said for travelers who love this for travelers who wish to escape humanity so you know you don't want to be near anybody there's a remote village in norway that officially has more books than people i love it it's called a monday and you and you know probably have more books than people though i mean our lives are has a lot more books than we probably have people in our town and think i want to figure that number out i'll report us ok monday monday i'll is in western norway and they call it an introverted biblio file's dream so i don't want to be near anybody you just want your south and your book this is the place to go there well see now the lesson here is that here's the big thing there are only two hundred and eighty people ok well that's significant not many people two hundred eighty people guess how many books ten thousand one hundred fifty thousand books in fact the country often refers mundo as the norwegian book town between second hand shops roadside stalls book shelves along the coast of the fjords the embraces readers second hand bookstores are integrated into local cafes art galleries and even souvenir stores when in doubt any structure probably has a shelf of books tucked into it love it love it love it most of the bookstores around town sell used books i love the reasoning behind this they sell used books because the belief that old books should be preserved in creasing leaves digital age you know so we don't want to lose the books or lose the old books that they keep recycling them that's wonderful readers should be sure to plan their visit with this season's the outdoor book shops are only open from mid may through june so that's  five since then it boasts that its collection has grown so much that if all the books on all the town shelves were lined up it would stretch over two point five miles it's a lot of books for a little town but if that wasn't enough for you and you needed even something more exclusive and remote mondale isn't the only town in the world with more books than people the remote village of i like the name of this hay on wye in the whale hay on wye has a population of only fourteen hundred people but thousands upon thousands of books lining its open air honesty shelves they've opened their honesty shelves a town always a library kind of yeah the town also sponsors a literary festival and it's home to more than two dozen different booksellers will be our towns of our dreams you know all those of us i mean i like people though you know i mean but it sounds adorable i go there for at least a day you know and then go shopping somewhere but i love it had to go maine june during the summer solstice bookfair yeah but it sounds cool doesn't it yes it does yes something different i mean you can say that are offering a service not only to the various preschools but more importantly to our young mother you know the patrons that have presumably children because we are so fortunate in this area and what i like though and we've talked about is that each preschool is different to me not only in their personnel but sometimes even how they do you know their programs or they'll do their curriculums  that mean they're just there so much competition so what we chose to do is pull the preschools in the participating preschools come in set up to we have tables set up and they will have all the information that you need to gather to be able to make an informed educated decision yes on where you would like to send your child for preschool so we called our preschool up palooza it is going to be saturday january nineteenth from one thirty or eleven excuse me eleven thirty one and you'll come around and visit and i think you'll get a lot of good information on a january cold january morning but the the benefit as well is this is happening before the preschool start taking resurvey our registrations because you know once this all starts rolling they're going to start taking registrations and they will so all the preschools so it's really going to end up being a matter of what is your preference of what you want so put it on your calendar preschool palooza january nineteenth very far right like this i've loved it is a second one fairly well attended that we decided we're going to do it again this year so it's called spark science for tweens so it's science experiments and things that are geared specifically to tween age kids like fourth or sixth seventh grade  rockets they blew up in the outside the library they did circuits all kinds of really cool things in the teen volunteers that run it when they're going through this loss and i'm like oh you guys know so much stuff like that it's just the knowledge is just so there and but they really bring it to a way that the kids are able to understand it so it's a really fun program brought to you by our our local high school science club that's going to start the first we have it every month starting in january through may it's always the believe it works will be the third thursday of the month after school at four o'clock so please please join us for what i love about it too it's like most like piers teaching piers right now it's the older kids kid well loved to learn from the older kids you know and you can always see it at the different age levels of you know who they look up to and what they like you know i sometimes feel like they like to learn from them is funded by and our libraries also our w t group is also funded but because of that we are one of the few libraries in the pittsburgh area that is now going to have and it should be up and running in january when you come visit  a writing station we have a new printer a binding machine all kinds of really neat stuff that the kids are allowed to come in with our help and use whenever you like whenever so you can sign up to come in and use that you can write your story and have it bound like an actual book will you know me since the day those boxes came in i was excited thinking i want to publish yes so if it means i write it out of myself in a bind it together kick started it will be on sunday the twentieth at one thirty so it's just a forty five minute program come in to do we have all the lot of really cool little prize the things the kids get to take home to so it's just it's a lot of fun we love our we  programs ok what is not better in the cold month of january than a nice cup of hot chocolate you know what i'm going to do i just i don't know if i told you this to tell you i went to a baby shower and they had a hot chocolate bar no that's durable i've seen and it isn't it has nothing to do with out the hauler liquor it was just this big you know thing of hot chocolate and had toppings you detained yes it did in marshmallows a little maybe chocolate sprinkles or this isn't that which is really fun so i was already going to do this hot chocolate book bingo so but i want to make it a hot chocolate bar yeah i think that would be fun and said yeah be a lot of that can come in with  know the kids can come you know put in the hot chocolate and then just whatever toppings they want but it's another it's only my second night my first one was so successful we have a blast when i did that being go now this is  calling it book hot chocolate book bingo because the bingo cards themselves will be pictures of various children's books become worse yet book covers so i think that will just be a fun way to play bingo and also to introduce the kids different books that they may not be aware of and then i'm going to have them there that they can look through and have them on display at cetera you know will do all that probably even read one and give some away even as we love our giveaways yes like yeah me too the kids loved it it was a blast yeah and that's a really good game for them to learn how to follow directions and how to listen how to find it listening to make sure they're listening to what you're saying is true yeah so it's fun for sure so  whenever there is a day when there's no school like and in service days like a week to school and the teachers still in school or whatever you would day off we decided that we're going to start doing binge watch days a little library you still just put either a t v series or with your

seasons at the library so you can have a binge watch day of that are any time you want pacifically we're going to have a fun day of that maybe drinking leftover but absolutely absolutely i give you all my leftovers and i'm embarrassed as well not embarrassed to say it's just typical of probably my age i've never heard of that show sorry your daughter's probably too young yeah i'm not going to say the opposite whatever linda it is so good yeah is that one of those where you have to should started at the beginning and i go yeah it's a drama but it's like it's one of those ones really the characters just mean a lot like i don't know it's just really well done i mean i've heard that from library day we've had josh and gab for this might be the fifth or sixth if you're maybe on three to me wages and they don't even believe and they're getting so big and they still come they do they do all i have to do i mean we literally like i'll talk to them on their way out from that performance

some crafts and things and then the performance will be day the third monday i falls on january fourteenth and it's the war that saved my life so it's like a good one oh my gosh by kimberly breaux baker bradley the war that saved my life an astounding novel will you cry rejoice or hold your breath absolutely you will find this book is exciting wise and profound ten year old ada has never left her one room apartment her mother is too humiliated by as twisted foot to let her outside so when her little brother jamie is shipped out of london to escape the war doesn't waste a minute she sneaks out to join him and so the adventure for things like that and yeah i like that and i like things that for i mean i think because of the sadness of it based around world war two you know with the kids suddenly and suddenly you know i had to be shipped out of their homes which is like the chronicles that's what happened to those kids right they had to go live with strangers right our kids can today can't even relate to but like but it's cool for them to learn that i needed to read that and yes exactly so i like doing that so we're beginning the year teens is not very historical will be reading twilight by stephanie meyer so i think and then we will be rattling off the complete collection of all the d v d s i have all of them giving away they can win every single twilight so they're going to win the whole thing going to be showing ready player one which is relatively new or movie so they'll be on january twenty sixth in the afternoon so you can come in and watch that the library some soup or two really good ones but i got so we just had new display in our in our teen section of the top from the website buzz feed the top team books of two thousand and eighteen and this one is pretty excited to read it's called what if it's us and it is didn't read it but we've talked about it here the book called they both died at the end and this is about arthur and ben and that was the title of that one yeah yes and he wrote that yeah and this is about this is about two kids that live in new york and  is doing but anyway so he is having a bad day in the since his he's an intern who says normally being in turn is more boring than terrible but today's a new uniquely crappy you know that kind of day where the printer runs out  paper and there's none in the supply room so you try to steal some from the copier but you can't get the drawer open and then you push some wrong button and the copier starts beeping and you're standing there thinking that whoever invented probably sheens is this close to getting their butt kicked by you not get along at all so that stuff definitely had the kind of day where i'm stealing the paper and i write i can't get the door open and i totally i totally relate to this kid and al yes he is having a very bad day something so  simple but like but it's relatable and so what if it's i'm really excited to read this again i know that these authors apparently they're best friends in real life and they came together to do this novel and it's just smart and funny and just heartfelt and it's going to  but it's also been noted as one the best books of the twenty eight hundred fourteen so cool that sounds good that's funny i'm glad you read that deborah and i had an episode with it yesterday ok so what i did was i was set i was going to show some things like on part two about new year's resolutions the last time i talked about things that we can find on line yes this time i brought hard copy things like i know a couple songs with some sign
