So excited! We finally have a book store in town! I‘ll post the books we bought later, but the collection is well-curated. The crowd today seems more interested in the cafe than the books 🙄 but I hope that at least subsidizes the book part so they survive and thrive.

Aims42 Oooo! Can‘t wait to see your book haul 🤩 1mo

bibliothecarivs The world improves a bit each time a bookstore, especially a local independent one, opens. 1mo
bibliothecarivs @Lcsmcat, since you mentioned that you're in NC, I thought I'd mention that I just got home from a fantastic Ben Folds concert. 1mo
Lcsmcat @bibliothecarivs I agree! And I hope you enjoyed the concert. 1mo
Lcsmcat @Sharpeipup So we must be near neighbors then! Are you in Wake County? 1mo

I would use this fable in my classroom to teach students about the importance of taking their time while doing their work and kind of use it as a learning moment.

As historic and fun as these fables are, we should move on from them. These fables are sexist because all of the stories only have male characters. They are innocent, but we have to move on from them.

The Hare and the Tortoise | Aesop, Caroline Castle, Peter Weevers

This story is wonderful to teach students about the dangers of being overconfident and the fact that even if someone says they‘re better than you it doesn‘t make it true.

This is a story that I clearly remember my mother reading to me as a child, so it was nice to reading it again. This is a story with a great message that transcends though time. I the illustrations in this copy were really good and I really enjoyed them.

“The Tortoise meanwhile kept going slowly but steadily, and, after a time, passed the place where the Hare was sleeping.“

This story teaches children the value of perseverance to keep trying, and to not give up. Very important messages can be taught with this book and will build students confidence in overcoming challenges.
