Ike and I just wanted to let you know that we've moved into the Amherst Public Library. This place is so great. That Mrs. Stanley and Mrs. Ashton are so fun to live with. They work hard all day but they always have time for us. Mrs. Stanley is here even when the library is closed so we are never lonely. Mrs. Ashton is always eating lunch over the sink and gives us the rest of her Subway sandwich when she doesn’t have time to eat it.
We have met many new friends here. The Berenstain family is just great to us and we went to dinner one night at their tree house. All kinds of people come to the library. We’ve met dogs, who aren’t the same color as us, but come in all colors. There’s this big guy Clifford who is fun to play with. We had never seen a red dog before but once we got to know him he was a lot like us. There are another couple dogs named Max and Annie. One has a disability but you’d never know it. She runs up and down the steps to the kitchen after we’re closed while the penguins have to use the elevator, and they’re birds!
Madeline is a girl here from France. She is a little hard to understand because she still speaks a lot of French but we found some books here to help us. There is this dude Elmer who is every color in the book and has a very long nose. And the best thing is that now we know “Where the Wild Things Are.”
This weekend, after the library is closed, all of us are meeting in the community room for a Homeward Bound movie marathon. There really is a lot going on at the Amherst Public Library. What a magical place.
