The story of a book in the library and his adventures in the world.
The end notes also included how/where to donate used books.
Reviewed from a library copy.

Book is no longer being read at the library and gets lost, forgotten, and eventually weeded. Then, he is sold or donated, getting a new lease on life.
This is a great book to explain why books are weeded and to introduce a library used book sale to children. The book's back matter includes places to donate books.

Sentimental, with resources in the back for new homes for books, always a good.

I enjoy stories that remind readers about things. Reminding readers that there are many types of books (even ones with ugly, nondescript covers) that are meant to be enjoyed is a good tale to tell. Working in a library, I always try to highlight topics/books that might not be the first thought or expectation.
Inevitably a book's life needs to change. Get off the books shelf but find somewhere new to explore. This book talks that too.

The life cycle of a book! I love the idea of giving books personalities and feelings about being read.

This one would be perfect to read before doing a book donation drive or if you're adding a Little Free Library!

The life cycle of a library book is an amazing thing. Live this life with a little red book as they go from hands to hand, to home, to home. This story was simple and amazing.
