And last but not least, Saturday and August 11th @ 3 pm, we will be creating our own country zines.

Here is a taste of what tomorrow might be like...Enjoy!

Starry, starry night... I mean library

Look at all those stars!  We have created a star wall in the children's department at West Regional.  For every one star that is posted, that means someone read 10 books.  Can you guess how many books that the children of West Regional have read so far? Or can you find your star?  

 Keep up that reading and keep reaching for the stars!

ReFocus : Art of the 1970s

Mood rings, lava lamps and disco, baby... do you know what they have in common?  They were all things that came into popularity in the 1970s.  We are continue our trip back into the seventies with our arts and crafts programs.  This Wednesday, July 11th, we will be creating some awesome art using string.  We are going to be learning two different string styles.  We'll be learning a friendship braclet knotting style as well as a braiding style.  We will be then creating either groovy braclets, keychains or such. 

Then on July 25, we'll be creating gnarly beach inspired creations with sand.  Both programs will begin at 2:00 pm in the children's department and are open to all ages. 

Guess who?

... I wonder who is going to be our special guest for tomorrow's storytime?  Hmmmm. Can you guess?  Be here at 11 am on Tuesday morning to find out.
