A total of 31 children enjoyed the first week of Summer Reading at the Stromsburg Public Library. Before the morning was over, approximately 75 people had passed through the door. We are thrilled to have so many children and their parents excited about reading!
Erin Dickey, summer reading coordinator, demonstrated nucleation through a variety of experiments, read the story, “The Coyote Who Swallowed a Fly” and gave prizes for answering questions and being a great scientist. Join us next week for “POP!” week. K-2 meet at 9 am with the 3rd-5th grades meeting at 10:30 am. The library is also open Wednesday morning at 9 am.
Our next big event at the library will be held July 29, 2014. We will again be hosting a Sidewalk Art Show and serving root beer floats. Children may begin arriving at 6:00 pm to begin their artwork with the public invited to the “art show” at 7:00 pm. This was a very fun event last year and we look forward to turning it into an annual show!
New books in the children’s section include titles from “The Five Little Monkeys” series, “Fancy Nancy” new readers and “X-men”.
