Library excitement

MICHAEL COONS/The Acorn HAPPY-Maddie Friedman, 4, right, has a big smile on her face after meeting "Madeline" on Saturday at the Calabasas Library. Several books have been written about Madeline, a creation of author/artist Ludwig Bemelman, who started them in the 1930s. Madeline is a convent school's clever heroine who has adventures in Paris, London and in other locations.
