Can’t seem to keep them out of the Newbery Collection

October 31, 2008 By 5 Comments

Cant seem to keep them out of the Newbery CollectionHalloween is turning out a little hairy in the City of Oakland. It’s layoff notice day. (Neither of yours’ truly affected, directly.)  And then there’s this zombie librarian in the stacks, trying to stamp "discard" on The Story of Mankind.

    Gorgeous, maybe you should exchange the picture on the left for the one on the right. Is The Story of Mankind that heinous? (I’m a little scared to comment again after the last reduntant calamity)
