I loved the library as a child and when I was in school. To be honest once I moved out and was on my own I was more extravagant and bought all my books instead of going to the library. Now that I'm married and have a child buying books is not high on the priority list when compared to groceries or diapers. So I love the fact that the library is still there for me to come back to with my family and to raise my child among its shelves.

It's their footsteps (clunk), and the door is already open--try to shout--they're in your room-- try to shout--they're creeping up your bed (clunk), stretching toward you (clunk), squamous ice-cold webbed fingers aiming for your spine--try to SHOUT!

“Because once you become a parent, you learn that love can involve more fear than you had ever imagined, and you never quite look on the world in the same way again.”
