May is Asian-Pacific Island Heritage Month, so that’s the theme for this week’s readalouds and books on display.

The library will close at 1:30 on Wednesday so that I can attend an off-campus meeting of library staff. Then on Friday, I will take a vacation day to attend a family function. The library will be up and running, though, in the very able hands of Julie Limbach Jones, former Pennekamp library media specialist!

What's Ms. Barbara reading?

When Stars Are Scattered, by Victoria Jamieson

Worth repeating:

"Along with her contemporaries Ellen Tarry and Ezra Jack Keats, Gyo [Fujikawa] made books that opened the door for today's conversations about diversity. She started with an empty white page and a wish for a bigger, better world and laid out a whole dream--inviting publishers, teachers, readers, future writers, and illustrators to imagine a more inclusive future."

--It Began With a Page: How Gyo Fujikawa Drew the Way, written by Kyo Maclear and illustrated by Julie Morstad
