Thank You to everyone who came out Saturday for the 2026 MOBookFest @ Washington Public Library. The weather cooperated (eventually). We saw lots of smiling faces, were entertained by Fredbird's manic energy, petted a baby wallaby, ate K-Bop Korean BBQ, gave away free books to kids, celebrated books and stories, and we even found Waldo!
