I Geek Superheroes
I love going to the library and finding new books or movies on superheroes! It's fun to pretend to fly, being super strong, fighting bad guys and saving the day! Everyday we go to the library they seem to have more and more books with my favorite heroes. Most libraries and stores do not have superhero books so I love going to the Chelsea District Library! And they even have cool stuff on heroes like firemen and policemen. The people at the library are superheroes too -- they tell me stories, help me find books and movies and have fun things to do. I would wear my cape to the library everyday, if mom would let me.

I Geek Dinosaurs
I wanna tell you something. Tyrannosaurus Rex means 'Tyrant Lizard King.' I learned that from books and videos at the Chelsea District Library. I also learned that even though the T-Rex only has two fingers on each hand, he was the meanest dinosaur of all. I really like going to all the fun stuff at the library; storytime, the computers, lego fun and the special fun events...but the dinosaur stuff is my most favorite.
-Tavi
Whatever you geek, fun or serious, the public library supports you. Get your geek on. Show your support.
