Closing time at the library. A girl of about four years old and her father have just finished using the self-checkouts and are heading towards the door. The girl looks up at her Dad and asks, “Why are they closing the library?”
He responds, “Because the people who work here have to go home.”
She frowns. “But why can’t they live HERE?”
Why not, indeed? Massive square footage, open concept, tons of natural light, a fireplace, comfy chairs, and thousands of books. I can see where she’s coming from….. 😉

Me too! What a delightful post. Thank you!
Ha!
You bet! It would be like living in Paradise.
Such a sweet story.
Just add a decent kitchen in there and I’m on board! 🙂
My sentiments exactly! I always wanted to live in a library or bookstore. I’d work for free. 😉
Oh, a child after my own heart. I could live in a library too!
We have a very small local library, with a gas fireplace, big chairs, a quilt and stained glass on the walls . . . I always think how nice it would be to live there!
How right she is to wonder!
Schitterende post
The 4 year old has a lot of wisdom 🙂 I now have a comfortable chair in my “library” which makes the room very cozy!
Ahhhh. What a great story. Thanks for sharing. I’ve always been at home in a library. When I was young, it felt like a really safe place to be, too.
