That is where about 90% of our missing books go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2907670 Mon, 06 Jan 2020 14:57:44 +0000 psw27 2907670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: Ah I love this! Losing things drives me nuts. I finally found this missing puzzle piece and then my husband moved it and it drove me crazy. I finally found it the other day and was like YESSSSS. So trivial, but so satisfying lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2907668 Mon, 06 Jan 2020 14:50:31 +0000 Ajsmommy 2907668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: LOVE it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2907624 Mon, 06 Jan 2020 03:35:45 +0000 mrs.kiwi 2907624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: ahh the satisfaction of finding a lost item! I haven’t lost any library books but I pride myself on staying on top of their puzzle pieces, parts to toys, etc... however I am currently missing a pig magnet fromthis Melissa and Doug toy and I will rejoice the day I find it.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2907618 Mon, 06 Jan 2020 00:10:53 +0000 ALV91711 2907618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: that’s so awesome you found it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2907616 Sun, 05 Jan 2020 23:53:22 +0000 meadow 2907616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: impressive!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2907614 Sun, 05 Jan 2020 23:01:11 +0000 Corduroy 2907614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Finally found it! And it was.... behind the headboard. I thought I had checked every inch of the bed but I'll admit I didn't check there. We ended up finding it because DD misplaced a second book. After having a few conversations about where it could be she had an epiphany and asked me to help her move her bed. And she pulled out the first missing book. We also found the new missing book between the bed and the wall. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2900741 Sat, 26 Oct 2019 23:26:19 +0000 Corduroy 2900741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I finally made it to the library to check the shelf. The whole series of graphic novels was gone (we had volume 8 only). I checked with the children's librarian and he confirmed I was looking in the right spot. He also checked the back. They may have sent the series to another branch. So still no answer to where the book is. I ended up paying $6.99 for the book so I could check out some more books. I still wonder if I'll end up finding it somewhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2900283 Tue, 22 Oct 2019 15:16:25 +0000 agold 2900283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: I am also looking for a lost item in my house - a watch a bought myself after graduating college. Ugh. But yes to decluttering the house! I am going through it top to bottom and its been a slow process because, well, toddlers. I hope you find that book! I lose my mind over misplaced things!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2900274 Tue, 22 Oct 2019 14:02:43 +0000 Corduroy 2900274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm still looking, I haven't made it to the library to chat with them yet. On the upside I'm making good progress on decluttering my house (again) in the process. Yay for pre-holiday cleaning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2900272 Tue, 22 Oct 2019 13:43:31 +0000 Alba4 2900272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Returned to the school when it is a town library book and vice versa.

Behind the couch. Under bathroom vanity. 🥴 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899499 Mon, 14 Oct 2019 10:49:56 +0000 Grace 2899499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found ours packed in a box of baby toys. Found it when I unpacked it for baby #2. So, if you’ve done any organizing in the last couple of weeks, check there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899489 Mon, 14 Oct 2019 09:14:53 +0000 ALV91711 2899489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope you find it. Ours end up behind the couch if they are thin or between the bed and wall. Keeping track of library books is a pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899473 Mon, 14 Oct 2019 04:55:13 +0000 Becky 2899473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours are always hidden in our bookshelf! My husband says he can never tell which books are library books so if he’s cleaning up that’s where they end up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899465 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 22:20:15 +0000 PinkElephant 2899465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: You can also just watch your account online this week - if it’s a popular book, someone else may try to check it out quickly, and the library will realize what happened/it’ll just drop off your list of current loans. We went through a streak once where this happened allll the time - it used to bug me so much when I couldn’t find a book!<br /> Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899464 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 22:15:34 +0000 Corduroy 2899464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for all the suggestions. I am checking or re-checking but no luck so far.</p> <p>@PinkElephant: It is possible we already took it back. I took back a bunch of books last week without diligently checking against my list. I missed a few around the house and dropped the remaining off this weekend checking against the list. I'll check the library this week and see if it happens to be there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899463 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 22:04:43 +0000 Mama Bird 2899463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: I was thinking along the same lines. We didn't use to have a dedicated spot for library books, and they would often end up mixed in with our own books on the bookshelf. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899462 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 21:52:28 +0000 PinkElephant 2899462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it possible you took it back already? If so, Go to the library and check on the shelf where the book should be. Every now and then we have one that gets missed when they check books in from the book drop.</p> <p>Also, is it thin enough to have slipped between the pages of another book (either at home on your shelf, or in the pile of books you returned to the library? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899460 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 21:09:46 +0000 tysonja 2899460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>you've probably thought of this already, but we have returned a book to the wrong library before by mistake (school library book returned to the public library). good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899455 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:57:08 +0000 brownepiano 2899455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Under the bed, wedged between the bed and the wall, on a shelf, in a bag, in the basement (that's where our last lost one was), in couch cushions, on top of a bookshelf. We try to keep them in one place but my kids love books so they never stay where they are supposed to stay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899454 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:48:26 +0000 Anagram 2899454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes behind the wall and bookshelf. I offered $5 to whichever child found it and my 6 year old spent the better part of an hour removing everything from her bookshelf and putting it back and she found it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899453 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:43:45 +0000 jhd 2899453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was also going to suggest in a bag, in or under furniture, etc. Do they ever read in the bathroom? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899452 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:41:30 +0000 newlypregnantlady 2899452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours are always stuck between the bed and wall. Or stuck between the wall and the bookshelf. Or stuck between the bed and bed frame. I’ve even found one inside my kid’s duvet cover. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899451 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:23:12 +0000 gotkimchi 2899451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Under the car seats? Under a couch, slipped on the side of a bed. That’s usually where ours are </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899450 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:22:45 +0000 Jess1483 2899450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Inside a bag of some sort? I’m always grabbing random bags to take to church, on a car ride, to the doctor, etc, and throwing things in them. Any chance you have a similar bag in a closet? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-is-the-lost-library-book#post-2899449 Sun, 13 Oct 2019 19:20:53 +0000 Corduroy 2899449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've misplaced a library book and I've been looking for it on and off all day. I've run out of places in the house to look (and I've checked the car). Give me your best ideas please. The kids are 6 and 4 and the missing book is a paperback graphic novel. The kids have helped look but we're way past their attention span. </p>
