Subject: Books with inserts -- i.e., Jolly Postman
Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2001 23:10:40 CDT
I was wondering if anyone out there has devised a
circulation procedure to account for the inserts in some
children's books -- i.e., The Jolly Postman, If We Had
Wings. There are neat little letters, booklets, etc. in
these books that I want to preserve, if I can. I don't
want to ask our circ staff to check each and every piece
in the book because their time is limited.
You can reply to me off-list and I will compile and pos
the answers. Thanks!
P.S. Sorry if this is a second post, but I haven't seen
my first message in the digests.

We're going to launch an "amnesty" program this Fall. Nobody
here =
remembers
the last one.
But I'm concerned about the language. Amnesty's primary sense
definition
revolves around something like this: "a pardon for political offenses
against the government." More commonly, in the Southwest at
least, the =
term
is used in reference to "illegal" immigrants.
The term does not quite lend itself to good PR or excellent customer =
service
to youth. But neither do many of its proper synonyms: absolution,
acquittal, reprieve.
I'm fishing for other/better/different terms...

What activities would you suggest for a Nancy Drew Luncheon? Its the
last even I've scheduled for kids entering grades 5 and up on our summer
reading calendar. I advertised it for parents and kids to attend and
am
hoping to discuss the changes of the books over the years, the
revisions, the authorship question, etc. Can anyone recommend games or
activities that have worked for you?
I was thinking of devising a book bingo game with prizes etc. I may try
to get one of the new CD-ROMS for a prize. Perhaps also
a reader's theater type read-aloud. How about recipes? I'm
trying to
get my hands on a copy of the Nancy Drew Cookbook.
Hope all of your SRP's are going well in full swing! Here are some
things I've got planned if anyone wants info: Intro. and advanced
Microsoft Publisher, Doll house diorama, beginning cross stitch, new age
music program, candle decorating, read-aloud poetry night, create your
own imaginary creature contest, "are you a remarkable
reader?"
certificates, tour of local sculpture grounds, book discussion of
"The
Library Card" Jerry Spinelli, African reader's theater with crafts and
games, old time radio drama program, mini-writing workshop, outdoor
walks listening to books on tape and a surprise craft.

Our library does not allow downloads, so no instant
messaging with aol or msn. Napster is also locked out.
Chat and games are allowed. On two computers there is
a one hour time limit, and a third computer has a
twenty minute limit. That keeps things moving pretty
well.

I'm getting ready to do a storytime for 3 to 7-year-olds with the theme
"What a Pickle You're In." Now at one time I had several
good ideas, but
did not pull the books or write them down. The original thought was
tricky
situations for kids, but could also extend to actual examples of kids eating
pickles. Am planning on serving pickles, of course. If any
titles or
activities come to mind please feel free to share. Thanks.

What about stating it simply as : Erase Your Fines. Bring in a food
item
to rid your card of past fines. You could set up some kind of
table with
fine amounts and the requested amount of food items. If you have
between
$1.00-$3.00 in fines, one nonperishable,$4.00-$6.00 in fines, two
nonperishable items and so forth. Or, Disappear Your Fines, or Vanish
Your
Fines. The YAs could even deliver to a food pantry and get involved in
the
community a bit. YAs and those a little younger can really be
responsive to
a program like this. Gives everyone a little pause,and kids can really
get
into helping others out. Just an idea.

How about using them as necklaces for older children. They could paint/use
markers, glue small decorations, etc. on the plain side and use heavy cord
or gimp for the string. Maybe relate it to a folktale and make a

Anthony,
We have amnesty days periodically--often to coincide with National Library
Week or other special event. We call them "Fine Free
Fridays." Maybe a
variation of this would work in your situation. Our policy is that any
materials returned while the library is open will have their fines waived.

Anthony,
I think this is a great idea. It will surely impact a lot of teens. Here are
some words I came up with for starters: forgetting, wipe-out, clear the
record, free and clear, wash-day, clean slate, erase, fresh start. Any of
these do anything for you? I like thinking positively.
The one image that stuck in my brain was the pic of an elephant with the red
circle-and-slash over him: Bring your items back and we WILL FORGET about
your fines!
Hope something here is helpful.

plan to read either A David Adler bio on Patrick Henry
or Ben Franklin and the book "Celebration", which is
about the fourth of July. I thought that it would be
great to read to the prescfhooler about Deborah
Sampson, the only woman to fight in the Revolutionary
War(she was secretly disguised as a man). I have not
been able to find any preschool books about her, but I
have found some for older aged children. If anyone
knows some preschool books about her please send me
the title and author. Thanks

Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2001 23:17:39 CDT
We had a young woman in recently who wants to find a book she read as a
child in the mid 80s. As she remembers it, a young girl (with hair the
color of corn silk) was taken captive by some Indians. Her whole
family was
killed except her because of her hair. The patron thinks it had won
some
kind of award. It isn't THE COURAGE OF SARAH NOBLE or CADDIE WOODLAWN.
I
thought it might be about Frances Slocum, but she didn't have blonde hair.
I've checked the following resources:
BEST BOOKS FOR CHILDREN, CHILDREN AND BOOKS, and WHAT DO CHILDREN READ NEXT
I've asked everyone where I work. They all say it sounds vaguely
familiar.
Does anyone out in the wide PUBYAC world have a suggestion? You can
send
responses directly to me.

Hello Everybody!
I'm getting this one second hand so hopefully I've got
all my "facts" right. This is a weird one.
We have a lady who was a teacher many years ago (not
sure how long but I think a LONG time ago). She's
looking for a picture book about a boy and his dog:
"The way he took the dog home, he accidentally killed
it"
She thinks the title may be "Epandamunus" or something
like it.
We're completely stumped. Any ideas?

Dear Collective Mind,
We are hoping that this rings a bell with someone. The patron
remembers
reading it in the mid to late 1970s, and thinks it was new then. It's
about
two frogs or toads. It's not a picture book - the patron thinks it was
150
pages or more. He remembers the scene on the cover as one of the frogs
(or
toads) in a hammock, in the autumn. It is definitely NOT The Wind in
the
Willows or any of the Frog and Toad books by Lobel.
We are stumped. Any and all suggestions will be gratefully
entertained.
