When I was in school, we weren't given fancy bookmarks. Oh no. We weren't given anything. If you wanted to keep you place in a book, you had to remember the page number. Times have changed, and children today are soft. Reader, parent and parentheses-lover Walter sends this:

My 6-year-old son, who's a big DS / Wii player, was thrilled to get this (rather fancy) "Wario Master Of Disguise" bookmark from the library of his (public) school last Friday (that would be March 2nd). Apparently the school library was just handing them out. It's a fancy laminated fresnel-card, i.e. you shift the card and the picture changes...
