Usually I didn’t have to stay but I hung around and the librarian started reading this book, Killer Underwear invasion by Elise Gravel and it’s about how to spot fake news and conspiracy. I got so interested I stuck around and listened to her read. Excellent book to teach kids about false information and how to check sources for truth and facts and not fall for disinformation. I’m going to order the book when I get home tonight!
