I'd have probably said exactly what you were thinking, unless she was bigger than me.

And maybe asked her what her mom did when she acted up as a toddler?

My snappy comments always occur to me too late to use them. I guess I would have just written her off as a snappy-person-wanna-be with poor taste………..

Being a tattletale, I'd have asked the librarian to address the screaming child's parent as well as the irritable hag, suggesting they all leave for the well-being of the rest of us.  

My kids did their fair share of noise-making and embarrass me to this day, but one thing I didn't let them do was disrupt others' peace without consequence.

I would have looked her straight in the eye and said, "Your mother should have thought of that." People forget that once upon a time they were a baby and a toddler too and I'm sure did their fair share of screaming.
