Library Lessons __Week 2__ Rules and Procedures 1st and 2nd Grade – Book Care and Repair “Dr. Saiva Book” from //Stretchy Library// Lessons Materials:
 * //Petunia// by Roger Duvoisin
 * //Box of gauze//
 * Black gift bag with a red cross (to represent a doctor’s bag)

 * Water bottle
 * Bookmark

 * 1) Greet children as Dr. Saiva Book. Explain to them that part of your job is to care for books and repair them when necessary just like a doctor would care for or repair a sick patient.
 * 2) Read the story. Explain that Petunia is a goose who was glad to help and thought a book could make her wise, but some of the things Petunia did with a book made you nervous (sleeping with it, swimming with it, blowing it up with firecrackers). But Petunia thought she was getting wise and wanted to use her wisdom to help her friends. Ask the students if they can use some of their wisdom to tell everyone how to care for books. Then offer to give a clue and ask the students to tell you the rule.
 * 3) Show the following from your medical bag. As you hold up each, take one guess from your smart Petunias who are glad to help take care of books.
