We've had a few more people register for the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program, and more and more kids are winning prizes for reading. Congratulations to Penelope, who was the first child to make it to 150 books! Good job! Keep up the good reading!
Last week's book of the week was "Zoom!", by Robert Munsch, a humorous tale about the little hero in all of us.
This week's book of the week (can you believe we're already at eight weeks?) is "Farmyard Beat", by Lindsey Craig.
"As soon as the sun goes down, the animals are up! ("Sheep can't sleep. Sheep can't sleep. Sheep can't sleep 'cause they got that beat!") Before long, there's a giant farmyard dance party, complete with funny animal sounds. But what happens when all the racket wakes up Farmer Sue? Here's a colorful bedtime story that begs to be read aloud."
With the end of summer approaching, we're getting closer to our 1000 Books Party. Everyone registered in this program is invited to attend. Come listen to fun, interesting stories read by our Director Shannan, library staff, and a few locals you may have met before. There will be snacks, and a fun craft the kids can take home!
Be sure to mark Saturday, August 18th, from 1:00 - 2:00 pm on your calendars!
