here are you by the theater's one hundred public library and i miss shannon and i miss linda and we're here to fill you in for the month of happenings in the children's partment in the young adult apartment i don't know what i said last time and i know it's going to be different every time but we're here kid it is all right so today it really does have to do with around the world like i said i like to mix it up and if there are things around the world last time we were together we talked about the caldicott and the newb award yet right that was last time so this time because i found something interesting talking about the nobel peace prize that's funny if h and i were just talking about the nobel peace prize you certainly than well there's a curriculum involving the  happen so never know what it is a coincidence but our minds to tend to share thoughts so yeah that's really cool well i thought it was interesting because not because of the person that won not too long ago so we'll talk about this but this is the one of course i rode in on of the nobel prize for literature in literature so the nobel prize in literature in this is given from the swedish academy to authors for outstanding contributions in the field of literature which i found the one winner interesting it is one of the five nobel peace prizes established in one thousand eight hundred ninety five with the will of alfred noble and they are woodward and yep they're warded for outstanding contributions in and see if i didn't i don't think i specifically knew the specific areas like chemistry physics literature peace ok and physiology or medicine ok so they're called the nobel prize and the nobel peace prize must be its own little thing too anyway it's given by the nobel foundation in awarded by a committee that consists of five members elected by the swedish academy of names that i really knew but a couple that did jump up are jump up at me were especially because what a couple years ago when i was down in key west and saw ernest hemingway's house one nine sixty two another famous famous one as far as names that popped out john steinbeck it's always good and the short novels and screenplays ok and then it came up to well i'm going to save that for last who the one i want to talk about interesting i'm going to just you know how i love those little tidbits of things ok which country do you think had the most have had the most nobel laureates  literature but that's the top three good for you france france was number one united states number two france was sixteen united states with eleven united kingdom ten and then it goes down from there and when you get to the for nobel prizes in literature from one thousand and one to two thousand and sixteen in different languages so what would you i suspect the number one language of two of the top three were english speaking countries i would have to go with you really  look at them really and like context clues is there really and yes so yes it's number one for the language what is number number two languages actually the number one country  so i went english french than german ok this is kind of pathetic actually the females we need to step it up a little bit because by gender males do circles around the women as far as who's won the nobel prizes in all of in the one hundred thirteen know well nowadays anybody can self publish so and i'll put it up for an award or something so anyway really quick two thousand and sixteen winner took me by surprise but apparently not the people that do the judging bob dylan oh bob dylan won the two thousand and sixteen nobel prize and he like i don't know if they don't know if it's because he  just war into himself but he didn't seem like he was thrilled about it as how i've been reading about it you know he had it on there and like he never acknowledged it it took him a long time to even acknowledge that he had won they were like waiting for him to give some sort of statement and he wouldn't then he put like one line up on his i have it here somewhere he put one line up on his website about having won it and then he took it down and that was it didn't there was some speculation that the here's what it was alfred know nobel that started the award here's a here's what fans some nobel club the talk much committee does not acknowledge refusals so you can't refuse it which is interesting you know once you get it you get it and continues to list its winners whether or not they won the pri i thought that was interesting that it was through the somebody who would want the prize i mean people do interesting write that they you know some people are like don't need it when the credit yeah they don't want they they're doing it because that's what they do and they don't need that special acknowledge ment but there's speculation that dylan was against the fact that the founder of the nobel was associate he did that dylan did not want to be associated with him and the fact that in arm a moment's armaments manufacture in other words built weapons and stuff for the military and all of that in the he felt like that prize was founded on an explosive and armaments fortune so that's that's kind of the speculation whatever he chose not to acknowledge it but you know it's interesting you can't give it back yeah once you get it you get it congratulations bob dylan whether you know you want to you know not but i would you know i would certainly offer that they could pass it on me and i'd i don't know what i've done to deserve it but writing things and he wrote all this material he released all this archive material under the umbrella title of the bootleg series it was all on released material opening up his working methods to scrutiny blah blah blah so  that he went from singer to spokesman for a generation and you know just you know he was he was big in that generation and yeah he was acknowledged for it well but you know but you forget i mean i don't think i would have thought that i would be more likely to say while he got into the rock n roll hall of fame or got his star on hollywood right you know then a nobel prize  contribution with all of the lyrics in the things that he's written about i think it's became in the conversation because my car has been running on one headlight and i started singing the we can drive it home with one head that i've realized that there was released in one thousand nine hundred eight which made me feel very very old because that was a movie that i watched a lot as a teen and now it's older than all the teens that came to watch it you know what i say to other but fun stuff going on the library s is definitely a big month for children's literature because we have an author coming to visit us in the month we have dr seuss month and also to kind of kick the month off we have our big preschool fare which is exciting tell us a little bit about that the first time ever i would be glad to it's like you're interviewing me and i what how does that go oh well it's going to be great oh ok it's called this is the first time we're doing it and like in the future going forward you know i'd like to have it better timed before the preschool start and rolling because a lot of the preschools have have had their enrollment but they're still coming right because that's not just that's really not just the hope the purpose of it the purpose of what we're calling a preschool palooza ok ok that is a not like a band thing like  well that's what we're calling it we're going to make it a big carnival atmosphere for the kids and various preschools and some daycare centers will be setting up tables to let everybody be able to walk around the parents it's such a huge decision you know i know what is out there in our area what are the differences you know how do they compare how are they the same how do you make your choices  fortunate that we have so many and there are it's overwhelming role in their own way so you really like you said it's really hard as a parent because we're going through this sooner than i would like right to decide what was the best for your for your carnival like i have things for the kids to do to keep them occupied so that the parents can go around and talk to the various you know places and get information and hopefully help them along the way very you know making this decision it's a big decision so it's our first time try i'm excited to make those connections to because i mean lucas will be two in october so the time will when you really do need to think ahead and also if you find one in even if like you're not registering him for like this fall but you get it in your head and think ok when it comes time i wanna send them to this one right this is when they're going to register this is what i need to think everybody's everything else everybody's different yeah so  we're great for all parents that have young children that you know like i said like my son's a baby but even just in that in my head i had a time to get my dad to start planning or if you're new to the community and you know it's a great way to kind of do a one stop shop yeah you know what because we as a library get a lot of those kind of questions and i don't like to you know recommend just one right anything that's not what i asked to do everything is different and i hear all but are here so we have a partnership with the committee which we talk about every month because they do something with them every month and clifford was what we did in february which was a huge event so we're going to be having our theme this month will be the cat knows all about that which is a wonderful if i read you now you have to find me a little page to the writing i mean look i say and then just start like randomly and this happens to be page sixteen ok i would not like them here or there i would not like them anywhere twister and i read it every year when i visit a couple times a month i'll go visit one of the kindergarten classes at the elementary schools and last year i was actually applauded the teachers started their life well because i guess the they don't even bother reading that book because it's so difficult yeah  i would focus on the last page and says should we tell her about it now what should we do well what would you do if your mother asked you and that was my writing prompt so i really got in the hat and then i'd had the kids write about what they tell their in he you know his family wanted him to be in business or medical or whatever do one of those something that's what you want to hear something can i just interrupt our second because i will anyway guess what i was going to talk about on the next his professors really weren't like and what he was doing because his stuff was so silly even out there and now they're you imagine then he found that he had this great niche with children's literature and obviously you know here it minute we could run it from last time because i brought them last time i remember yeah we did it during we yes and we had him go and pay him the coolest so we did the right i remember so we thank you but at that time we were unable to say this but that we can you actually as gear this program for the maker mondays with the bots to play for through sixth graders but this is definitely something that you could do with even younger kids with the with the being so definitely very very user friendly which is which is so that's really the main reason we've yeah i heard we did get one of our coworkers nancy made a cake out of of one of her and i and other library in our area does that and i say you know this library does that but i didn't realize that we had we did that so who knows course when the class was over and i let them go through all of that check out what you want in the first thing they do a little girl opens up the thing and she's walking around the whole room going to change and i said your mom's going to be happy that you're going to take and lynn always likes to do something festive about that such as going to do or say st patrick's day story time it's on march fifteenth which is a wednesday night because the seventeenth is a friday which is actually st patrick's day quickly yeah yeah so six thirty so we're just fun you know crafts story nice to get excited for the holidays where green and then our biggest thing we want to and this up so with we'll talk about even more there it was so it is our  neat for kids to get to see and meet an author and to hear how the process even works because i think it is so could just just hit a book and they just you know they just enjoy the book but i don't think it's they can comprehend what all really goes into the right she's funny she's so much fun she's active she is for that age level too so i can't wait to see or because she tell you know she'll tell you when you talk to her she considers herself an introvert she feels you know but yet she loves being with people and people definitely did it but yeah i just oh good yeah that's right i had thousands that i've kept track of i was sure i would be surprised by that so while time flew we were talking about a lot of stuff that we didn't need to get to so
