toys AND books

our library

Congress bans kids from libraries?

I have been aware of the toy testing for a while, as I am wondering what will happen in the near future with my doll making. This makes me so upset, as I cannot think of independent toy makers putting lead in their toys! The whole idea, is to make natural and healthy toys for our children and our earth. As for books? I am also a librarian, need I say more? Well I will, it makes me sick!!!!

American families need libraries now more than ever, as everyone knows the state our economy is in. A family may visit their library and in doing so, they will have access to gobs of goodness. Books, magazines, music, games, movies, internet access to visit with friends and family nation wide and internationally, story time for young children, programs for every age, information galore, a place to just be together. A family or individual has access to all of this for how much? $0.00 That sounds good to me.

in which our children will live.
