That's a wonderful story. Thanks for sharing. :)

Thank you! It's a post I'd been meaning to write for some time! Please feel free to share it. I'd love to hear if others have such memories. . . .

I have a great library-related memory, but not related to a bookmobile.

What a great story! And--oh, yes!--the day one gets her own library card! It's like a promise of all the adventures to come. When my girls were little, they had their own cards, but hated that I insisted on keeping them in my wallet. . . . Today, they carry their own cards and even are able to go to the library on their own. But, those early days of sharing the library with them are memories I will always hold dear. Thank you for sharing!

When I was even younger than in my story above, we lived in a village up north. Their library let me have my own card even though I was only four-five years old. Then we moved to a town and that library wouldn't let me have my own card which was a big disappointment to me. I had to go back to borrowing on my mom's card again.

I got to ride in our bookmobile because my father was a volunteer driver--he'd drive and I'd read and read.

I actually have several library cards now - for libraries in the town I live in and in nearby towns.
