Mr. January has lost his bookmark

Mr. November dusted the shelves and needs a bath

Mr. December brushes his teeth before curling up with a book

Maybe we should all make a pact to return to the dusty shelves, abandoning our electronic reading devices and online bookstore purchases, and head back to our libraries. I feel the need to wander throughout the dusty shelves and rediscover Dewey’s Decimal System.
