MotherReader

MotherReader - "The heart of a Mother. The soul of a Reader. The mouth of a smartass." And also a librarian working with children in a public library.

Occassionally sharp tongued perhaps, but I couldn't agree more with her observation "One of the bestselling preschool books of recent times was Walter the Farting Dog. At the same time, the American Library Association named as one of its best books Michael Rosen’s Sad Book, a book in which Mr. Rosen talks about his despair over the death of his son. I believe that, for most of us, what we want lies somewhere between a flatulent canine and overwhelming grief."
