Skoob is back and ready to take students on a journey through the neighborhoods in the library. With help from Stacks, the Grand Dewey Daddy Shelf Elf, Skoob explains the three kinds of addresses a book might have. He elaborates on the addresses from the zero hundreds to the 900s, and includes his trademark rhyme with each category.
