Jackson loves going to the library after school. His parents drop him off and he gets to pick out new books to read every week. The library has books about animals, space, sports and more. Jackson can take home up to 5 books at a time. When he is done reading them, he returns them to the library and finds new books.
Today Jackson checked out a book about dinosaurs, one about trains, and one about kids playing soccer. He also borrowed two comic books. At home, he read the dinosaur book first. He learned that the T-Rex had sharp teeth for eating meat and small arms for grabbing food. It was neat to read about what dinosaurs were like when they lived on Earth.
