Shelf Life

Kermit lives in a coffee cup on the window sill of my office. Kermit was a gift from one my student aides. The gift was inspired by a drawing by our resident hit-artist (a.k.a. Mr. Gehres) depicting me as Kermit while announcing a basketball game (apparently I’m no Bob Costas). Anyway, sitting in a coffee cup watching the students come and go gets old so, being a library frog, Kermit reads. Of course he reads frog-related literature. Here he is reading Frog and Toad Are Friends by Arnold Lobel. It is an easy read but it takes him back to childhood (tadpolehood?) when his mama used to read to him.

Here is the original charicature by Mr. Gehres, our photography teacher. That is supposed to be me behind the microphone. This is what happens when Mr. Gehres has too much free time.
