It is very sad to think that the days of wondering through a big library full of books like we did may soon be a thing of the past! Somehow looking at a keyboard and computer screen isn't quite the same as being curled up in a big comfy chair with a good book!

I remember going to the public library as a kid, the aisles and aisles full of books just waiting to be read, and how I'd take at least an hour picking out the ones I wanted ... I even remember how the place smelled! I still love the smell of old books! With my kids, we made going to the library a Saturday morning ritual, starting when they were toddlers, and they were so proud when they were old enough to get their very own library card. They both still read a lot. And my son, now 27, carries a book with him everywhere he goes and reads whenever he's not doing anything else! It would be a shame if the next generation of kids misses that! Just because something is "new" and high-tech, does NOT necessarily mean that it is better!
