This is my Daddy. He is one of my most favourite people. I asked him to help me write a blog...

This is what he thought about libraries...

I love my library.

I’m very lucky as the library I go to - two or three times a week is only four minutes walk from where I live.

The very first library that I joined - when I was about five years old - was even closer – it only took me two minutes to get there as I usually ran all the way!

I first went to a library about 73 years ago – gosh, that must mean I’m 78 years old now!

But I still get a little excited when I push open the door and see all those books to read, and I see people reading the local newspaper or clicking away at the computers. There are lots of books for children of all ages.

Joining a library is easy – why not find out how to join? It’s free to borrow books.

Just remember to take a bag so the books don’t get wet if it’s raining.

Here he is at Christmas... He likes eating as well as reading!
