They should throw the book at her
I was Library Manager for 25 years. We had a policy that stopped fines at a certain level. This would never have been a story, just happy to have book back.
I returned some books to the library, that I took out when my daughters were babies. The librarian gave me a rum look, and said that they were seven years overdue. I panicked, then she looked up and smiled 'Lucky for you, children books do not incure fines.' Phew. 😂😂😂
I’d have her executed
