February has been a busy month at the library. On Friday, February 10th, six preschool children were treated to a Valentine scavenger hunt. The hearts they found were then made into necklaces. Following the scavenger hunt they enjoyed a story entitled “The Valentine Mice”. To top off the morning the preschool children were given a Valentine treat from Mrs. Gunderson and Mrs. Bode. Then on February 13, we visited St. Boniface first and second graders for a story and Valentine craft.
Book Club will be held on February 22, at 4:00. They will be discussing The Pilot’s Wife.
New books in the library are Into the Firestorm by Kat Martin and Echoes in Death: An Eve Dallas Novel by J.D. Robb.
