We had some special Halloween 🎃 pups at #PawsAndPages last night, dressed up as famous duos from children’s literature! Sue and dog Maggie came as Elephant & Piggie, and Amy and dog Elsie came as the titular subjects of If You Give a Mouse a Cookie 😍🥰

Born on October 27, 1858, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th president of the United States, left a lasting mark on America’s public lands. During his presidency, he established five national parks, designated 18 national monuments, created 51 federal bird reservations, and protected approximately 230 million acres of public land for future generations. Today, you can celebrate his birthday by visiting a national park site for free!
