I’m a school librarian that has enjoyed buying books about conservatives for years. Also took great joy in weeding every Kwanzaa book in the district and also taking a pass on purchasing anything about Hillary or the Obamas. You should have seen the propaganda that my predecessor had stocked the shells with. It was a practical Liberal Land. No more though!

I guess she is opposed to all the libraries Carnegie built too.

...a bit of a cliche, a tired and worn ambassador of children's literature...Howie Carr did a whole segment on this on Newsmax this afternoon - deliciously, it turns out that in spite of this snotty librarian's opinion about Dr. Seuss, the Obamas - yes, those Obamas - were big fans The First Family reads the "Cat in the Hat".....

Glad you posted this story. I was just going to do so myself, but decided to skip it because the copying/pasting was difficult. The librarian’s actions and note to Melania are simply outrageous. But, it doesn’t surprise me. I served as president of our local Library Board and found that the “professional” librarians were often very liberal and little Marxists who liked to throw their weight around about what the patrons could and could not read. The more radical the better.

I learned how to read by age 4, and had only my parents' college textbooks, a set of World Book Encyclopedias (1959-era), and monthly mailings of "Anaesthesia & Analgesia" magazine to read. My grandparents collection was somewhat more forthcoming, with Kipling and Michener, Ferber and Twain and much more.

I attended grade school believing that there must be some hidden mystery of wisdom which it was mine to divine from the obvious and mundane tasks we were given. When, in the 2nd Grade, I finally realized that they actually were just teaching us to read and write, and that there was no hidden jewel of knowledge, I lost interest in the process.

But I kept reading virtually anything I could get my hands on. And that has made all the difference.
