Summer Reading Program is done

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Summer Reading Program!

We had a lot of fun together and we know you'll be busy with school or homework or going to work yourself, but we are always here for you. We're ready and willing to help you find your next book for whatever the occasion. 

Have a great fall and winter and we will start our next Summer Reading Program when the fireflies return. :D

Happy Reading! 

Rockin' Ron the Pirate

Have you ever wanted to parrrrrty with a pirate? Have you ever wanted to sing a silly song and dance along?

Well here's your chance. We're going to have the fun of hosting Rockin' Ron the Friendly Pirate at the Weathersfield Proctor Library! 

Starting at 10:30, Thursday August 4th, we'll set sail on quite a journey! Original songs, Pirate stories, and maybe a real pirate shimmy; this is not the Pirate Party to miss!

Come on down to the Weathersfield Proctor library, August 4th at 10:30am. We'd love to have you! 

How is everyone doing?

Hello everyone, 

I just wanted to give a shout out to everyone who is participating in the Summer Reading Program. We are so excited to have you on this journey with us to read and keep our brains popping with lovely information.

Some of you are reading fiction novels about dragons, far away places, a different state you've never been to, or just about a person and their life like you and me. Those are great books! 

Some of you are reading nonfiction books about Jane Goodall and her research, learning how planes are built, or just researching how your town became a town - they weren't always there you know, people had to make it a official town. Those are great books!

And some of you are only reading particular things; you're studying for your SAT's next fall, you're listening to an audio book about spiders to try and concur your fear, or you're only interested in Africa and their tribal laws and culture because you're going on an exchange program in a few months - very specific examples here. Those are marvelous books too! 

Whatever you're reading, it's a great book because you're interested in it. What you read builds vocabulary, sends brain waves through your cranium, and helps you learn something you didn't know - from a new fact about tribal life, to someone's feelings about faith.

Everything you read is important in it's own way. 

Enjoy this summer and enjoy reading! 

Happy Reading! :D

Miss a craft day? Try this one at home!

If you missed the craft last Saturday, or if you had hoped to see me in Perkinsville and I wasn't there - I'm very sorry. 

BUT!~ This craft you can do easily enough with a printer and some computer paper right at home. 

Simply print off this link and scroll down and you'll be able to make your own Exercise Cube! 

fold and tape the sides until you have your very own cube; roll gently (because it's paper) and get ready to be up and moving! 

It's super fun. I hope you're ready for the challenge!

Craft in Perkinsville

Just think, you could even make this craft at home if you had:
a water bottle
                          a straw
                                        a few balloons
                                                                  some clay or play dough

So drop by and find out how to make it from your lovely Youth librarian, Jordan
