Spaghetti Head and Chicken Fingers! 😁 Video Description: If your library kid loves spaghetti and chicken fingers… you’re going to love that Rhett & Link wrote a book, illustrated by Erica Salcedo! It’s called “Spaghetti Head and Chicken Fingers,” and it’s written just for you! 📖 ✨

No words. #BookSky

We're still here! 😁 Thankful for books, thankful for stories 📚 Video Description: Mychal exclaims, "I'm still alive!" Books, characters, stories kept him here. He's a struggle bus rider (a struggle bus conductor!), but he's survived. He keeps going one day at a time, seeking reasons to stay 💚

Graphic novels turn kids into lifelong readers. They challenge readers, transform reluctant readers into readers, they bring joy. They boost vocabulary, increase reading comprehension for brains that take in information differently. They tell a story. Graphic novels are real reading, real books ✨📚😊

“Every kid is a library kid.” I cried my mascara off hearing @mychal3ts.bsky.social speak last night at an All Hands Raised fundraiser. Mychal, you are a national treasure. Thank you for making this library kid’s night. Now off to the library to pick up my latest holds! 📚🌈🦋

You are not alone! Your enough is not embarrassing, your enough is enough, you are enough (one you’ll believe it, hope exists) 💚✨

“3-6-9, it’s okay to not be fine!” - Your library celebrating and rooting for the chapters of you, your story 💚

High-five to everyone trying their best! You are enough, I’m so happy you’re here. Thank you for staying another day 💚✨ 📸: Cleo Gordon Elementary School

“In his, her or their own space and time” is a beautiful way to describe the spectrum of autism, of neurodivergence 🪐⏳ Kiersten Case’s Lilypad Library is on a mission to highlight the experiences & stories of young autistic kids ✨🌱

On May 24, 2022, nineteen 4th graders and two teachers were murdered in a school shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. They were so much more than that devastating day. They loved life, they had favorite things, they’ll always be beloved 💚 Eternally cherished, forever in our hearts 💛

Had the pleasure of meeting the humble and inspiring @mychal3ts.bsky.social at Wednesday's rally to end family and child detention! Thank you, Mychal, for raising your library voice to call to #freefamilies !!

Dear Islamic neighbors, Muslim neighbors, We do not hate you. Islamic Center of San Diego shooting is despicable & heartbreaking. I’m so sincerely sorry the world is such a mess. There are no right words to give the loved ones of those killed, to give to San Diego 💔 Hope persists beyond hate ❤️‍🩹

Peacock mental health & peacock library joy 🦚 📚 😂 ✨

Like @mychal3ts.bsky.social writes, “The library is always here for you." That's why we're committed to being here for our libraries. This year, we're adding $31.7 million in permanent, baseline funding to our city's three library systems so they can better serve New Yorkers.
