Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Eva @ A Striped Armchair and Marg @ Reading Adventures that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. If you’d like to participate, just write up your post-feel free to steal the button-and link it using the Mr. Linky any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries!
Library Loot # 1
Here are the books that I have checked out right now:
For the Middle Grade Book Challenge

Alfie and the Big Boys by Shirley Hughes (is also the illustrator)
Smart Dog by Ralph Leemis, illustrator Chris L Demarest
Random book choices like this are what happen when you set a 3 1/2yo loose in the children's section with "Pick two books" as her only instruction. =)

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen -- because I am 33 and have never read any Jane Austen and Eva (@ A Striped Armchair) though this was a good place to start.
The Eleanor Roosevelt Girls by Bonnie Charles Bluh -- I searched Eleanor Roosevelt on my library's website and this is one of the books that came up. Eleanor Roosevelt's birthday is October 11, 1884; she has been a heroine of mine since 5th grade when I did a report on her for Social Studies. I wish I still had that report.

It is so nice to know that there are other readers out there who have not read Jane Austen either! Enjoy your loot!
