Sophie loved to read books, and Sammy loved to throw them. And so the night of the library sleepover, Sophie went and Sammy stayed home. And what a night it was! Everyone -- even Mrs. Terry the librarian -- was wearing pajamas or nightgowns. Mrs. Terry lit a candle and read stories. Sophie loved it all, and she knew Sammy would have loved it, too. The next night, with a little help from her mother, Sophie let Sammy share the magic. She set up a book bed, and they had a library sleepover -- at home. It was such fun that Sammy gave up book throwing -- and Sophie decided to be a librarian when she grew up.
