Welcome to the Laura Ingalls Wilder Children's Room!

Ms. Clara Webber was the first children's librarian of Pomona Public Library. A long time correspondent with Mrs. Laura Ingalls Wilder, she was instrumental in having the Children's Room named in honor of Mrs. Wilder on May 25, 1950. Today, we house the original hand written manuscript for the novel Little Town on the Prairie. Every February, we host the Laura Ingalls Wilder Sociable in honor of Mrs. Wilder's February 7th birthday.

Under the Weather


8/365 - Under the weather
Originally uploaded by Elle-za
Good morning, young Pomonans! I'm a little under the weather today. Under the weather...do you ever wonder where these little sayings come from? Why not on top of the weather or beside the weather? Why weather at all?? I'm sick for heavens sake! I do love this photo, however! Thank you flickr!

Anyway, I'm very sorry to miss story time. I hate being sick on Tuesdays. It's not fair!

I'll stop whining now. Believe me I could go on and on but it isn't pretty and I'm sure you have better things to do.

Have yourselves a GREAT day and I'll see you tomorrow!

Joke of the day: Why don't we make fun of colds?
Answer: Because they're nothing to sneeze at! ;)

Strike One ... Strike Two ...Stike Three!

Oh yes, it can happen. Lightning can strike three times in one place. First strike - zap!- Grandma Sue is down! Her cold hit her hard and yet she was able to finish her craft and work her night before she went completely down.

Second strike - zap! - Ms. Nissa's down. Her cold hit her hard also but she finished training classes and came in to work her night before she went completely down.

Third strike - zap! - Ms. Lois is down. I was able to finish my night but that was it. Down I went!

The good news is that we are all recovering. Sadly, I missed my Tuesday story time. Grandma Sue and Ms. Nissa are back and I hope to be there tomorrow.

So that's it. Lightning can strike three times in one place. Either that or the same kid sneezed on all three of us. I'm sticking to the lightning theory. :)

Joke of the day: What kind of jokes do people with colds tell?
Answer: Sick jokes!
