The best thing about coordinating with college student volunteers for our book fair is the looks of joy and excitement on their faces when they walk back in to an elementary school library for the first time in a decade.

Every few months I have to re-teach myself the basics. I know there are tons of templates out there I could print but things sink into my brain better if I draw them out w ink and magic marker. Nothing fancy but still fun.
