Hey, everyone! Huge shoutout to @basketballanime and @x_goddess_x! Both are super nice and great to talk with. Thank you both for being great friends!

😶.you are so cool can I have a shoutout sorry if you didn't want me to ask you are just so amazing😊😊

Everyone please follow @aleksandra5150 I want to surprise her!

Hi guys! Here are some random facts: 1) Just like human babies suck their thumbs, elephant babies sometimes suck on their trunks. Awww! 2) Some snails have as many as 20,000 teeth! 3) A group of lemurs is called a conspiracy. 4) The world's longest concert lasted 453 HOURS. I think it was an automated concert because there's no way a human could play an instrument for that long. 5) And finally, ketchup was once sold as medicine to treat diarrhea and indigestion.

Oh my!! 453 hours is a seriously LONG time!! And I never knew that baby elephants sometimes suck on their trunks! So adorbs!!! Thanks for the cool facts!

Those are pretty neat facts! I like the one about elephants sucking on their trunks! So cute! 🐘 Oh, and I wonder why they made that concert 453 hours long. Who would sit there for that long?! 🤣

I know, right? That fact really surprised me too.

Will there be a summer reading this year? There wasn't last year...?

Unfortunately, I don't think there's going to be a summer reading. I don't know why.

I know! Though I probably won't be taking part because I'll be very busy this summer😥

I don't really know. I was hoping there would have been one last year, but like you said, there wasn't. But maybe your local library has one!
