1. We “Baby” Our Books!

2. Books are just as “helpless” as a little baby!
So we need to be careful and loving with them.

3. When we check out a book from the library, we are RESPONSIBLE for keeping the book safe, clean, and dry.

4. If you were a helpless little baby, would you want someone to drop you or let you get hurt?

5. If you were a book and someone dropped you, would you want the librarian to let that person take you home?

6. Books like for us to hold them and read them and love them, as long as we remember to:
BABY OUR BOOKS!

7. If you were a helpless little book, would you like it if someone forgot you and left you somewhere…like on the playground, at daycare, or at the YMCA?

8. You should always have a safe place to keep your books.

9. We keep our book babies safe from pets who might hurt them.

10. When we carry a book, we must remember to carry it safely so it won’t fall and get hurt.

11. Boys and girls are RESPONSIBLE for keeping our books from getting hurt.

12. Books are happy when we love them and protect them.

13. PUT IT IN YOUR BACKPACK, JACK!!!
When you take a book home, don’t forget to:
PUT IT IN YOUR BACKPACK, JACK!!!

14. Will you remember to “BABY” your book?
