Secret Desk Fort
I tiptoed away from the giant castle book and slipped into the shadowy hollow beneath the tall wooden circulation desk! Way back against the warm oak kickplate, I found a heavy triangular brass bookend holding up an oversized leather ledger. Beside it lay a silky green tassel from a stray bookmark. With a determined heave, I tugged the soft tassel into a cozy bundle and propped myself right against the cool, gleaming brass plate. Peeking out from my private wooden alcove into the moonlit, whispering library felt like having the greatest nighttime shelter ever!
