Summer seems to last forever when you're a kid. The first day of school is a million years away. However, librarians must prepare for the end results of this childhood miscalculation. As school vacation nears its end, young readers and their angry parents will be in clamoring for Summer Reading List Books.
Of course, none of these books has been available since the beginning of summer. Checked out, missing, lost, on hold - all these terms mean Junior is screwed. And Mom is angry. She's steamed at Junior for not mentioning any Required Reading. But she's also pissed at the library. Why doesn't the library have 250 copies of Tequila Mockingbird?
Why explain the situation or engage in a fruitless catalog search when Gouger has come up with a better way? Merely point upward to the colorful Poor Planner Banner. When hung over empty Summer Reading displays, friendly Mr. Penguin lets patrons know they are out of luck.
Made of unnatural fibers, this sturdy sign is made to last for decades. Because kids will never change.
Item #086-Poor Planner Banner-$24.95
