Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Manners Matter in the Library
Lori Mortensen · 2010
71/100
👍 Worth It
The library setting makes this companion volume feel immediately practical — kids encounter the exact scenarios in the book the moment they walk into school media centers, which is a real instructional advantage. Like its classroom sibling it is brief and graphic-driven, best used as a read-aloud or paired text rather than a standalone. Capstone's distribution and institutional adoption make it a dependable choice for elementary libraries.
