Hello from MIBF! I know you’ve been waiting for my annual Day One report! Apologies for the delay; I was tied up from opening to closing yesterday, and had very little time to scope out.
Other than the fact that this scene (see above) was caught on cam (eep, haha! Thanks to Biena for the screenshot ?), I’d rather not bore you with the details of my workday, so here are some of the interesting things I encountered yesterday.

Tahanan’s new board books were an Instabuy for me. Cutest things ever! The new Nancy Drew cover are nice and refreshing, but I can’t help but long for the old yellow hardbacks.
Me too, my major concern is that they won’t match my yellow spined Nancy Drew
