The school librarian is teaching the Dewey Decimal System to the kids by correlating it to the human body... I'm not sure I've got all of it, but it's something like this:
above the head, 00's, generalities
top of head, 100's (philosophy)
eyes are 200's (religion)
smiling mouth is 300's (social sciences)
mouth is 400's for language
500's is neck (?)
600's is shoulders (human body)
700's is arms (art, physical activity)
800's is the heart (poetry)
900's is the feet (history)
I don't even know where she came up with this, or if it's a really old mnemonic device. I can't find it on the web.
Seems to work for the most part.
