In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month watch this video of Pierce school librarian, Mrs. Kretschmar, reading Monica Brown’s book Waiting for the Biblioburro. This story is about a young girl in a small village in the country of Colombia who eagerly awaits a visit from the Biblioburro.

If you were a librarian, how would you get books into children’s hands? Would you use an animal, a vehicle, a drone, or a new invention? Draw a picture or write a story about how you would deliver books to kids. If you would like to share your creation and have it posted on our webpage send it in an email to Mrs. Kretschmar at amanda_kretschmar@psbma.org.
