Mr. Wiggle's Book by Carol L. Thompson

How do you take care of your library books? In Mr. Wiggle's Book we learn how to take good care of our library books so others can enjoy them too. As I met with my kindergarten students for their first checkout today in our school library we talked about what we need to do to be nice to our library books. Mr. Wiggle shares things that have happened to his book that make him sad. "Someone came to read my book.....". Bad things happen to Mr. Wiggle's Book. The pages are messed up by dirty hands, spilled juice, torn pages, scribbles, and holes. Mr. Wiggle asks the readers (or listeners) if they will be a good book friend. What a great book to help the youngest library users learn how to care for their library books.
