Myra here.
One of my favourite places here now in Al Ain, where we live, is the Zayed Central Library. While I still maintain that a lot more can be done to boost children’s literature in our quaint, provincial little town – I am pleased with my new discoveries each time I come to visit.
This time around, I visited the nonfiction area of the children’s section of the library, and found quite a few new-to-me titles.
I usually find this area to be filled with young readers. I just lucked out this one time that I found it deserted. Naturally, I had to take lots of photographs.
Here are my finds!
