“The Shelf Elf,” by Jackie Mims Hopkins introduces our library elf Skoob. His imaginative story explains the use of shelf markers, bookmarks, keeping books clean and neat, quiet voices, and “return your books when they are due so others can enjoy them too.” With the students helping him with proper library behavior and book care, Skoob is on his way to earning another Golden ShelF Elf Award. We all share in this accomplishment and celebrate.
