We’re kicking off the school year with one of Mrs. Greene's favorite things: Wacky Days, Inspiring Days, and (mostly) just plain FUN Days in the BVE Library! Each day brings something to celebrate — and what better way than with a great book?

Whether you're into picture books, quick reads, chapter books, nonfiction, poetry — or ALL the books — we’ve got something for you. Our goal? To spark your curiosity and keep you turning those pages!

💡 This idea was inspired by amazing Iowa librarian Shannon McClintock Miller, whose “You’ve Been Book’d” program has spread joy in libraries everywhere. Now, we’re excited to share our own BVE version with you!

🔍 Click a book cover to explore it in our library catalog — read a summary, place a hold, and check it out!

⭐️ When you’re done reading, tell us what you think! 

✍️ Write a review using the catalog so that others can be swayed to try something new! Here's some suggestions on what it include in a book review.

• Was it fun?

• Would you recommend it?

• What part made you giggle?

• What did you learn?
  
  

📅 Each Month, a new slide will be added with more Wacky Holidays to read, learn, and explore!

👩‍🏫 Teachers: We’ve created a resource list for you on TeachingBooks.net with all the books from the calendar. Click a title to find summaries, author info, read-alouds, book trailers, activities, and more!

🚀 Let’s make this a year of reading adventures - one wacky, inspiring, joyful book at a time! 📖✨

So get ready to Read. Return. Repeat.
