If you completed the reading log for this week, please be sure to show it to us when signing in so that you can receive a sticker for your log and the chance to enter your name into our grand prize drawing that will take place next week.

There was definitely something fishy at Preschool Storytime & Movement this morning thanks to the book we read about a fish learning to embrace his uniquely patterned scales which often set him apart from the crowd. After listening to the story and singing our songs, everyone then got to design a uniquely patterned fish of their own to take home. We hope to see everyone again next week!

This week Summer Reading continued with a visit from Ryan Bridge “The Bug Man” accompanied as always by his vast collection of living and preserved specimens. After getting to learn all about different members of the insect world, those brave and daring enough had the chance to hold a variety of creatures including spiders and caterpillars!
Check out these lovely flower pocket décor pieces fashioned this week by a group of very talented and creative local ladies! As always, we would like to thank the Northumberland County Council for the Arts for partnering with us to make events like this possible. Be sure to keep an eye out for postings concerning upcoming events at your local library!

Just like previous weeks, registration/check-in will start at 9:30 AM and then the program will begin promptly at 10 AM. If you completed the reading log, please be sure to show it to us when signing in so that you can get a sticker for your log and the chance to enter our grand prize raffle from which several lucky winners will be drawn at the end of our time together this summer.
Following the bug out and a snack, all those that completed their reading for the week will be able to select a free book for their home library or something from the prize box. We hope to see you all tomorrow morning!
We got our very first library cards! Never forget that instant access to worlds of information are readily available at the library or online through the Axis 360 platform that’s included with your membership.
Signing up for a library card is easier than ever before! So long as an individual is at least 3 years of age and is a resident of Northumberland County, the only other things required are two forms of identification and a parent/guardian for those under 18.
We hope to see you soon!
