Tales From A Librarian

Several months ago I received a calling as our ward's librarian, and I absolutely love it. One of my favorite parts of the calling, well, besides getting out of Relief Society, is the interaction with the children. So even though school is out for the summer, I still have some funny quotes to share. Enjoy.

This darling seven-year-old boy pops by the library immediately after sacrament every week. With his arms reverently folded, he delivers the same line each time: "May I please have a Holy Bible?" Even though I know what he's going to say, I laugh every time he requests a "Holy Bible".

A few weeks ago, another young boy, about  six or seven, stopped by the library for some supplies. 

"Can I get a scripture?" he asked

"Of course. Which one?" I replied. 

He cocked his head and shifted his eyes franticly as he tried to find the answer to my complex question. (Mind you, there are only two books to pick from: Bible or Book of Mormon) After a few seconds, he met my gaze and replied: "The one with Jesus Christ".
