There's a new theme in baby showers--books for the library! That is the HOME library. (This is an attractive theme for teachers and library personnel.) Please ADD your recommendations, as well as any baby shower information you wish to share.

Nursery Rhymes Game

Although cards are nice,

With their sentiment and prayer,

They’re read once or twice

And tucked away with care.

A book is a treasure,

With works and pictures that unite,

To read over and over,

Night after night.

So instead of a card,

To baby and mother,

Please consider a book,

With your thoughts in the cover.

We don't need fancy clothes,

or any more toys to drive us wild.

Instead please bring a book,

your favorite as a child.
