A Book and A Hug

A Book and A Hug--have you heard of this website? http://www.abookandahug.com/ It seems to be a great resource for matching books to reading personalities. There are lists for girls, lists for boys and a few author interviews. You can even find a list of books considered "careful content" for middle readers that are reading above their grade level. Check it out today!

Royal Tea Party!


Yes, the royal wedding has come and gone and many of us spent that day without power and trying to assess damage from the recent tornadoes. Our hope is that all of our library children and their families are safe from the storms and that life is returning to normal.

Our tea party has been rescheduled for this Friday 10am to 4pm in the children's dept. Drop by any time for crafts, dress-up and refreshments. Browse our fantastic display of books dealing with all things England---knights, castles, princesses, royal families, etc. Oh and sign our guest book too while you are at the library!
