CONNIE MORELLA LIBRARY, Bethesda, Maryland

Connie Morella Library, Bethesda, MD

On my recent visit to Washington, DC, for the ALA Conference, I stayed with relatives in Bethesda, Maryland. On my way from their house to the Metro Station, I passed by the Connie Morella Library, where I stopped in and had a nice chat with the librarian. I learned that the library is one of  21 branch libraries in the Montgomery County Public Library system and was pleased to discover that the Montgomery County Library has 34 of my books, as well as 22 as e-books. They even have one title,  Your Skeletal System, available to download as an audiobook!

Visit to the Bethesda Library, Bethesda, Maryland

Last week I was in Washington, D.C., staying nearby in Bethesda, Maryland. As I often do when I travel, I stopped in at the Bethesda Library, which was just a few blocks from my hotel, and visited the Children’s Room. I was pleased to meet Cassandra Malik, the children’s librarian and share with her  my new book Hatching Chicks in Room 6. Afterward, as I browsed the nonfiction shelves, I was happy to discover a number of my books and when I looked at the catalogue I found that the Montgomery County Public  Library system has 35 of my titles. It is always heartening to know that my books are available in libraries across the country.
