Check It Out! A Book About Libraries (Informational)




Check it Out by Gail Gibbons is an adorable and informational book introducing readers to the wonderful world of libraries. This would be an excellent book to read to children before their first visit to the school library or the public library. Check it Out tells readers all about the different kinds of libraries, the many types of books you can find in a library, and all of the things to be learned in a library. This book also talks about the history of libraries and the ways that they have greatly changed over the years. Although the book is slightly outdated and the illustrations aren’t very detailed, it is still a very cute and informational book. I never thought I would learn something about libraries but I did, and I think that other people could learn from this book as well.
