GRETYL

One day recently while I was listening to rousaki tell me about all the work he has done to his lake cottage (he doesn't come to the library to check out books), Mrs. StarRider approached me to tell me that I had a visitor waiting outside the staff door.

Imagine my surprise when I opened the door and saw Gretyl standing there...no katandkev in sight! She had walked all the way from Gretyl's Garden to check out some reading material and she wasn't even allowed in the front door! (What did I tell you recently, Gretyl, about contacting the ACLU...Animal Civil Liberties Union?)

Gretyl was carrying a list of books that she wanted to check out. Of course, she was also denied a library card, so I told her I would check out the materials on my card if she would promise not to chew them. Puppies chew books, she informed me, not big girls like her! (And Gretyl, at 22 pounds, is a very big girl indeed...enhanced, we like to say.)

Here is the list of books Gretyl requested and that I fetched for her while she waited outside drinking some water.

The Puppy Place: Rascal, by Ellen Miles

All creatures great and small, by James Herriot

Bloodhounds, Inc.: The Case of the Missing Minds, by Bill Myers

Henry and Mudge and the Bedtime Thumps, by Cynthia Rylant

Biscuit wants to play, by Alyssa Satin Capucilli

Wishbone: The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, by Joanne Mattern

Warriors: A Dangerous Path, by Erin Hunter

Puppies in the Pantry, by Ben Baglio

Rainbow Magic, The Pet Fairies: Lauren and the Puppy Fairy, by Daisy Meadows

Magic Puppy: A new beginning, by Sue Bentley

Hank the Cowdog: The Curse of the Incredible Priceless Corncob, by John R. Erickson.


Taking pity on Gretyl (it was a very hot day), I put her in my vehicle and drove her, along with the books, back to Gretyl's Garden on my lunch break.

Cache is not in the library or on library property as I was unable to get the permission needed.
