Mr. Wiggles at the library

I purchased both books together right when they came off the press! They are excellent! Carol Thompson is a great author and captivates the subject for the students to learn about the library and care for the books. Patti

Mr. Wiggle's By Paula Craig

This book is a must have for every elementary and Children's library. Tells about taking care of the books children check out of the library. And the kids love listening to the story and talking about how to take good care of books.

Library lessons on care of books

This book is excellent. In the past I have collected damaged books to show students what not to do with books. The illustrations of tears, fingerprints, scribbles, etc. are very real looking. This is great to use when teaching the early grades how not to treat books.

The Best Book Ever Read to Children!

This is my all time favorite book! When I was a child, I would get so excited about going back to school. Why? I knew on the first day of school, our Librarian would be reading to our class, "Mr. Wiggles". She would have a special "Mr. Wiggles" voice, and we all loved hearing it. When we reached the fourth grade, the Librarian said she'd no longer be reading "Mr. Wiggles" to us. We were so dissapointed, and asked her to continue. We made sure she knew we would never be too old for "Mr. Wiggles". Now that I am grown, and have a young child of my own, I read it to him. It is my son's favorite book, and our favorite time together. This book, and that Librarian, gave me the love of reading. Hopefully, it will do the same for my children. Read this book to your kids, and you will give them the gift of literacy.

Just what an elementary librarian needs!

Mr. Wiggle's Book is a very useful tool for the elementary school librarian who is trying to make sure that children take care of their library books. The illustrations are wonderful and very realistic. I have used this book in a story time situation and the children really thought that someone had written or torn this book. After using this book, the children really seem to enjoy making sure that their library books don't end up like Mr. Wiggle's.
