We’re all decorated for Valentine’s Day at the library! Stop by this month for books, programs, and more all while taking in and admiring the excellent decorating job done by our wonderful staff. Stay up to date with everything going on at your local library and always remember to share your love of reading with others!
To kick off the month of February, come down to the library and pick out your “Blind Date with a Book” selection from our front display area! Each book has a hint concerning what it’s about written on the outside, so it’s up to you to decide which one sparks your interest based on the clue.
Once you’ve read the book, be sure to fill out the “Rate Your Date” bookmark inside and return it for a chance to win a special prize at the end of the month!
“Reading has astonishing benefits for children: comfort and reassurance, confidence and security, relaxation, happiness and fun. Giving a child time and full attention when reading them a story tells them they matter. It builds self-esteem, vocabulary, feeds imagination and even improves their sleeping patterns.”-National Literacy Trust
