...I walk them over to the section that has everything from 2nd grade chapter books to 6th grader level writing and then I fangirl at them while the parents just stare...
That is awesome! I would have adored a librarian like that when I was in elementary school. I still feel very lucky I had a science teacher in high school that shared his love of science fiction with me so much that he let me borrow one of his Anne McCaffrey Pern books over one summer. Senior year before graduation we were encouraged to write thank you notes to the people we felt had helped us reach graduation. I made him one and told him, "So long, and thanks for all the fish." It made him cry. I couldn't believe I'd made an adult cry.
