Our Library is Not Big Enough

The closest public library to us is the one in the city of Lomita. It is a very nice, yet small library. When we went there today, Alex had the hardest time finding books that he hasn't read yet. He usually checks out and reads about 6-8 books per week. He is reading at about the 100 page chapter book level (ex. Magic Treehouse or Encyclopedia Brown). Unless he wants to move up to the 200+ page book level (ex. Harry Potter, Hardy Boys or Lemony Snicket), we will need to move on to a bigger library. Right now he is a little intimidated by the longer books. I suppose that trying to find another library is a good problem to have. He's probably read more books in his life than I have. Really.
