“Never give a baby a library card.
They could learn to do anything! Just think, and think hard!
Ideas come from books, and too many of those
can lead to big problems, as everyone knows!”
Babies could learn how to cook; they could learn how to sew; they could learn to drive baby cars to and fro! From running barber shops to styling everyone in the latest diaper fashion, just think of all the chaos babies could cause if we let them loose in the library! Books can teach us anything we want to know. Can we really trust babies with that power?
From wife-and-husband team Erin Sandberg and Tom Booth comes a laugh-out-loud love letter to libraries and a celebration of the joy of reading that will have you rushing to get a library card of your very own.
Praise for Never Give a Baby a Library Card
Married duo Sandberg and Booth strike a humorous tone as they convey a serious takeaway—no one should limit access to knowledge...A rousing message to embolden library users everywhere.

Publishers Weekly
***STARRED REVIEW*** "Sandberg’s rhythmic, rhyming narrative rolls along well, gathering momentum and ending with a celebration—a spontaneous, joyous event captured ably by Booth's artwork. With an enticing title, an amusing text, and rollicking pictures of babies and their elders using the library, this engaging book won’t be sitting on the shelf for long."

Erin Sandberg is a writer, reader, and avid library-goer. Fun fact: Whenever she moves to a new city, one of the first things she does is get a library card! When she’s not drafting essays, short fiction, and children’s stories, Erin is probably taking a very long walk or cooking up something tasty in the kitchen. She lives in Portland, Maine, with her husband, Tom Booth, and their son. Tom Booth is a children’s book author and illustrator. He loves making books and designing characters for games and movies. He’s been drawing and visiting the library since he was little, and now lives in Portland, Maine, with his wife, Erin Booth, and their son. Fun fact: His middle name rhymes with broccoli.
