It’s COLD outside today — for us here in southern Kansas, anyway — but that can’t stop me from a quick trip to the library. Story time is over, and the library was quiet, which means we found a lot of good books. Here’s some of the new ones (that we haven’t checked out before!):
For A/K:
Come to the Fairies’ Ball, by Jane Yolen/Illus. by Gary Lippincott
Firefighter Ted, by Andrea Beaty and Pascal Lemaitre
Thanks a LOT, Emily Post!, by Jennifer LaRue Huget/Illus. by Alexandra Boiger
Looking Like Me, by Walter Dean Myers/Illus. by Christopher Myers
The Frogs and Toads All Sang, by Arnold Lobel/Color by Adrianne Lobel
For C:
Illustrated Encyclopedia of Ancient Greece, by Sean Sheehan
The Extra-Ordinary Princess, by Carolyn Q. Ebbitt
For M:
Sorcery Rising, by Jude Fisher
For me:
The Small Adventure of Popeye and Elvis, by Barbara O’Connor
Mudville, by Kurtis Scaletta
Dream Girl, by Lauren Mechling
The roundup is either at Reading Adventures or A Striped Armchair. Obligatory FTC note: the links are provided through my Amazon Associates account. If you click through and actually purchase one of these books, I’ll get a teeny, tiny payment. But, since no one ever does, and it’s SO much easier using the associates account to put up these links, I’m going to keep doing it.
*Ones that M eventually read.
**Picture books we really liked.
Enjoyed your post! This is my first one for Library Loot, and mine is here:

It was so cold last week, our library closed without notice! That was an awful dash through the cold, only to arrive at a locked door.
I haven't even heard of any of the ones you got this week, but since my niece is staying with us, I might check out some of those picture books!
