The Great Migration

As you may have noticed, our posts here have been few and far between lately. A large reason for that has been issues with Blogger. Miss Ami actually has two blogs she manages, this one and a more eclectic one titled A Mom's Spare Time . For some reason, Blogger is not letting people log in and out of different blogs for large stretches of time, and since Miss Ami was logged into the other blog on her computer, she can only access this one from random public computers. Not conducive to late-night-everyone-is-finally-asleep posting.

For that and other reasons, we have decided to combine the two blogs, and move everything over to A Mom's Spare Time. We the turtles are going into semi-retirement, but may pop in for an occasional comment. You can still find us here under the sun lamp at the Library, soaking up the rays, and listening to stories read by our faithful younger patrons. If you are one of our regular followers, we encourage you to become a follower of A Mom's Spare Time, and thank you for your readership and your great comments over the past couple years here. We'll see you on the other side!

Those Other Bloggers

Now, we know Three Turtles is your favorite blog of all times. Well, okay, it's not even our favorite blog, but of course it's in your top five, right? Ten? You glance at it when you're really bored???

At any rate, there are, we admit, other great blogs out there, and from time to time we would like to point you, our occasional insomniac readers, in their direction. Today we spent some time at A Book and A Hug, where Barb Langridge can help you search for just the right book - by age, by reading level, by genre, or by keyword. What a time saver!

There are special sections for boys (a tough group sometimes, as any librarian can tell you), or kids reading above their age level. Under "Resources", you can find links to other blogs that review books (hey, who is that under Young Adult Resources?), as well as links for parents, educators, and other adult-type persons.

Stop by when you have some time on your hands, because this site requires more than just a quick glance. We'll be bookmarking it especially for the upcoming holiday season, when every grandparent in the area asks us to suggest the perfect literary gift for the grandchild they see once a year. Hope you find it useful as well!
