A-Z Baby and Me: Public Library Journey
Our journey with books in the children’s section of each of the 72 branches (and Central Library) of the Los Angeles Public Library and beyond. . .
LAPL did a video interview and blog post on us in 2017! This Mom is Visiting All 73 Library Branches https://www.lapl.org/collections-resources/blogs/lapl/mom-visiting-all-73-library-branches
My name is Megan Panatier and I live with my family in Los Angeles, California. We have lots of cats (and a puppy as of February 2019!). I spend some of my time as a Speech Language Pathologist in public schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District. I became a board member of the Children’s Literature Council in the Spring of 2019!
I started this blog as kind of a diary of my visits to the library with my daughter Riley in the Spring of 2017, around the time my daughter was 12 months old. I wanted a way to explore Los Angeles with her, and a way to explore the best thing on the planet. Books. Children’s books, more precisely. There are so many books out there and I can’t keep up. At least at the library, I can check out a few and not get overwhelmed. It’s a starting point. I needed a plan. So the plan is to go to all 72 of the LAPL library branches (in order of library branch number — plus Central Library, and some other stops along the way) over the next few months. . . years? I don’t know how long it will take, and I’m not in a hurry. Join us on our journey.
