My Favorite Library: Edwardsville Public Library, by Mary Curtis

 Dear Friends of Freddy,
My name is Mary Curtis. I am seven years old. I like the Edwardsville Library in Edwardsville, IL because it has a nice playroom. The playroom has blocks that you can build towers with. There is a place where you can color in the room.

 We go the Edwardsville Library because our library is very small. We go to our little library too but we go the Edwardsville Library because it is very big and nice. The babies can play in the playroom so Mom or Dad can go find a book. There is a big kid section and a little kid section.

 The outside of the library looks kind of like a chapel. It has a fountain with flowers around it. Sometimes the fountain is off.

 My family likes the Freddy books. Mom reads them when Dad is gone. Sometimes Dad is here and he listens to them too. The Edwardsville Library doesn't have any Freddy books.

 Thank you for reading my letter.

 Sincerely,

 Mary Curtis

My Favorite Library: Lenawee County Library, by Luke Colson

 Hi! My name is Luke Colson. I am 12 years old and I live in Michigan. One of my favorite past times is reading. My favorite books ever are Freddy books! I love Freddy and think he is so funny.

The Lenawee District Library is my library. It's at 4459 W. US 223 in Adrian, MI. It's a small library, but it's great!! They have a good selection of books, including a few Freddy books.

My library is special for many reasons. One, because the librarians are kind, cheerful, and helpful. They know me by name. They help me find books when I can't find them, and when I forget my card they will look it up for me. If they don't have the book I want, they will order it for me from another library.

Also, my library has a lot of special events like the bookmark contest, the teen reading challenge, book sales, and adult classes. They also have a story time for the little children.

As you can see, my library is a wonderful library. The librarians make me feel special, and the events encourage children and teens to read more often. I hope my library wins more Freddy books. If they do, I will be the first one to check them out!!!
