Paul Haupt, Board of Directors Treasurer, read: "Dragons Love Tacos" by Adam Rubin, and "How to Babysit a Grandma" by Jean Reagan and Lee Wildish.
"Dragons Love Tacos" is a fun, quirky story with imaginative watercolor, colored pencil, and gouache illustrations, showing what can go wrong at a taco party for dragons. It's a perfect book for kids who love dragons and tacos that aren't too spicy.
"How to Babysit a Grandma" is a funny, sweet book that celebrates grandmas and grandchildren. If you're lucky enough to babysit a grandma, you might have a sleepover at her house! This book's helpful advice is guaranteed to make you an expert grandma-sitter in no time.
