Keiko promises she will never, ever chew on a book.

The best little free libraries, in Keiko's opinion, have dog treat drawers. Keiko can open drawers.

Keiko's running partner, Indie Poodle, has left for college! He will be a dorm companion dog. Keiko is jealous. So many books. So much petting!

Keiko loves getting books in the mail. This one is SAY HELLO! by one of her favorite picture book artists, Linda Davick. Thanks, Linda!
