I haven’t thought about my elementary school life for years let alone the elementary school library. But suddenly last night I dreamed about my elementary school library. In my dream, I was an adult and I went back to my childhood library again. Everything was the same and I could still borrow books. There were encyclopedias, Disney cartoon VHS tapes to borrow too and the small collection of PR rated Japanese manga was still there as well. Looking back, the school library was more than just a room with books it was a place where curiosity grew and where many of us first developed a love for reading. I sat in my favorite spot where it was quiet and people rarely walked by and I read books for a while before I woke up. I wish I had spent more time in that library in my dream even though it was just a dream.
Did you guys go to the school library often back then? Did it have a great collection of books?

I can still remember my elementary school library. My friends and I would check out all the Hank the Cowdog books and the Eyewitness book Arms and Armor over and over.
Yes! The school I went to had an amazing library! I used to spend a ton of time there because it was peaceful. I also found some of the best niche novels like Crooked.
It was cool in a more structural way. I remember all the fiction being on one side, and all the nonfiction being on the other side.
