You're listening to Julie's Library, where books bring us together.

Today we're going to read Joan Proctor, Dragon Doctor by Patricia Valdes, illustrated by

Felicitasala, and Mr. Crums Potato Prudekument by Ann Reno, also illustrated by Felicitasala.

Welcome everyone, I'm so glad you're here. I'm Julie Andrews,

and this is my library. As always, my daughter Emma Walton Hamilton is here. Hello, we're so excited to

or maybe even draw a picture of future you. You can send them to us by visiting

julyslibraryshow.org. There are so many different ways to leave your mark on the world.

Some are grand, like inventing a new medicine, and others are smaller, like helping to start a
