Book Homes

I like that place where they house books! Book homes!

*rolls eyes and laughs* Book homes. Yes. That’s obviously what they’re called.

Well yeah! Book homes! And people can temporarily “adopt” the books. Like a rental service! For books!

Well, I guess you could call it that.

Okay, so just in case you didn’t catch my drift that I so obviously threw your way, I’m talkin’ ‘bout libraries!

And if you didn’t catch the other drift, I’m Marie and Jo is over there being green and very Jo-ish.

Just kidding I’m Marie.

*rolls eyes* Because I obviously act like that.

Sometimes--well not really. Okay fine I’m Jo! With a J! Not an M because then I’d be Mo! Like Mojo!

*shakes head* And we just wasted all that time talking about alternate names for libraries and which one of us is Marie. Or, rather, myself. But anyway. Today we’re going to be talking about libraries. And Jo is going to start because I said so.

Because she said so! Well. I’d like to start off with a beautiful . . . VISUAL AID.

So pwetty! SO MANY BOOKS.

Quite beautiful. I wish I had that many books.

What do you wanna bet that Jefferson had more than that many books? Wasn’t it Jefferson who liked books or am I just going even more insane than I already am?

Jefferson as in the third President of the United States?

No, Jefferson as in the dog! Yes, the third president. President. Whatever.

*frowns* Well, I’m not sure actually. I think so.

I’ll just say yes. Because I don’t think my brain would remember that if I hadn’t learned it in history. ANYWAY. LIBRARIES. I WANT TO GO TO THE LIBRARY. Maybe it shouldn’t be “Take me out to the ball game,” but instead “Take me over to the library.” That’d be much more interesting.

I’m sure it wouldn’t be as popular if that’s what it actually said.

Well that’s true.

So was there anything specific about libraries that we were going to talk about?

I don’t believe so . . .

So we’re just talking about libraries in general?

*Nods*

Well now I don’t know what to say . . .

Just nod and we can have a nodding war. Just kidding! But libraries. They have bookshelves. And there are some really cool bookshelves out there.

That’s true. I would consider getting bookshelves that are . . . special and awesome, but I don’t think they’d hold as many books.

Yeah I just don’t have money to pay for awesome bookshelves. Like this one.

Yeah, that too. But that is a really awesome bookshelf.

I know right?! And I want one that’s like, you can sit in it! Like this one!

That would be awesome! I feel like I wouldn’t sit in it though . . .

I probably wouldn’t let anyone sit in it, for fear of breaking it. Even myself!

How would you break it?

Have you met any teenagers who haven’t broken one thing in their lifetime?

Well, duh. But how do you break a bookshelf that you’re supposed to sit in?

*Shrugs* It could happen!

Right.

It could! Maybe someone could fall into it!

I really doubt that. But anyway. I don’t have anything else to say, do you?

Nope!

So I guess that’s it for today . . .

Yep!

So goodbye for now fictional people!

Bye!

Last word!

P. S. Those are words! PLURAL.
