Librarian's Night Before Christmas
Librarian's Night Before Christmas | David Davis
8 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
"Santa is appropriately jolly and the elves, exuberant. A library cat and mouse contribute to the antics."--School Library Journal"This volume will definitely find a place in the hearts of librarians and library lovers."--Review of Texas BooksDue to low staffing, a librarian must spend her Christmas Eve stacking the shelves at a library in desperate need of renovations. After the strain of a long night that has left her feeling "like Bob Cratchit in A Christmas Carol," she is pleasantly surprised to see Santa and his elves coming to her rescue in a red bookmobile. Santa helps out by signing Newbery winners and starred Caldecotts and then reads to the children. His elves, eager to help, stock the library shelves with Hawthorne, Steinbeck, Millay, and Hemingway and then replace the rugs, fix leaks, and organize gifts according to the Dewey decimal system. After paying overdue library fines, Santa tells everyone, "Do one more good deed. Have a real merry Christmas--teach someone to read!"

Picture book that is really intended for an adult audience of librarians, it references many of the issues and problems that libraries experience, and it has some clever literary references. But the rhyme is too forced, and it just doesn‘t flow.

Oh my gosh! So much fun! Thank you @BooksTeasAndBookishThings for all the lovely books and bookish items! I'm holding out until Christmas Eve to read the Librarian book; the candle and wax melts smell wonderful!; the bookmarks and jewelry are beautiful; is that tea or potpourri in the pouch?; and the bag, what a great quote!
My daughter has claimed the stockings & doesn't understand the secret book!
