2 Creepy Crawly Librarians on GIS Creepy Crawly Day! We love reading Creepy stories - do you? Our favorite is Creepy pair of underwear by Aaron Reynolds. #WeRGIS #CreepyCrawly #Spookyreads #happyHalloween #spookylibrarians

@JoanneCleland13 Love love that story - and the fact that he is ‘real’!

Reading "A Long Walk to Water" with my Grade 5s. They could not believe that Salva Dut is a real person. They will love seeing these photos of his continued action.
