Thomas Library Blog

Recommended by Wendy Rank, Acquisitions Technician-- Goodnight iPad by Ann Droyd This is a parody of Goodnight Moon for the modern generation. At the end of a stressful, hectic day, we all need to power down, turn off electronics and relax in the evening. Very cute book that everyone will enjoy... the young, the X generation and the grandparents.

While we don't have a copy of Goodnight iPad in our collection here at Thomas Library, if you are affiliated with Wittenberg, you can request a copy through OhioLINK. If you live in Springfield, Ohio, the Clark County Public Library also has a copy.
