Our last Star Reader of the Week was Axton.
This week's Star Reader is Cody! Congratulations!
Our last Book of the Week was a cute "Little Miss Austen" board book: "Pride and Prejudice: a Counting Primer" by Jennifer Adams. We've ordered the set, so be on the lookout for more "Little Miss Austen board books at the library!
Our twenty-seventh Book of the Week is "Sprocket's Christmas Tale", by Louise Gikow.
“Poor Sprocket is very depressed. It’s the night before Christmas, and he still doesn’t have a present for Doc. Last year it had been easy; Sprocket had given Doc a wonderful old hammer he found in a trash can. Bit this year Sprocket hadn’t found the right gift, and now it’s too late. It’s snowing outside and Doc will soon be home from his annual Boy Scout reunion.
But unbeknownst to Sprocket, Traveling Matt is trudging through the snow towards Doc's workshop and Fraggle Rock. And through a strange turn of events that leaves everyone a little bit confused, Matt ends up solving poor Sprocket's problem." - Henry Holth & Co.
If you love Fraggle Rock as much as I do, check out this youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RI-uoZlyqCY
The Sylvan Lake Library is also holding a couple of Christmas contests!
If your child is 8 and under, we are having a Christmas Coloring Contest. Pick up a coloring sheet at the library, take it home and color it, then bring it back for the chance to win a Christmas Present from the library!
For teens, we are having a "Draw Your Christmas" contest. If your child is between the ages of 13 and 18, have them draw their favorite thing about Christmas, their Dream Christmas, or their favorite Christmas memory. Submit it to the library with their name and contact information for the chance to win a fantastic Christmas Present!
Both of these contests end December 21st. Winners will be announced December 22nd.
Stay tuned for our next Star Reader and Book of the Week! Keep up the good reading!
