I'm excited about my second year at Skyview Middle School!
I'm available every day except Wednesdays, and I love hearing from students about what they're reading, as well as their suggestions for new books. Stop by any time.

Excellent library jokes:
What does the librarian say when she has to leave?
Time to book!
What did the book called "Chills" say to the other book?
" I feel chills running down my spine!"
What is a book's favorite food?
A bookworm
A chicken walks into the library. It goes up to the circulation desk and says: "book, bok, bok, boook".
The librarian hands the chicken a book. It tucks it under his wing and runs out. A while later, the chicken runs back in, throws the first book into the return bin and goes back to the librarian saying: "book, bok, bok, bok, boook". Again the librarian gives it a book, and the chicken runs out. The librarian shakes her head.
Within a few minutes, the chicken is back, returns the book and starts all over again: "boook, book, bok bok boook". The librarian gives him yet a third book, but this time as the chicken is running out the door, she follows it.
The chicken runs down the street, through the park and down to the riverbank. There, sitting on a lily pad is a big, green frog. The chicken holds up the book and shows it to the frog, saying: "Book, bok, bok, boook".
The frog blinks, and croaks: "read-it, read-it, read-it".
Read books online from all over the world!

Visit the Listening Post Wednesdays 6th & 7th hour
The Listening Post program, which focuses on trust-building between young people and their elders through talking about a variety of topics, is available to students during 6th and 7th resource hours on Wednesdays this year. Kids can stop by and talk, have a snack, and take a break from the busy school day.
Our 7th graders read to 1st graders!
