Around the World!
To go along with our Summer reading theme this year, "One World, Many Stories" we have been taking children entering grades 1-3 on a tour around the world @ the library! The first week we visited Scotland, then we jumped over to Australia the second week and last week we touched down in Italy. We've also had some special guests take us on tours of different countries. Last week when we visited Italy, Josephine- who normally works @ the Circulation desk shared some stories, taught the children some Italian words, shared some bruschetta and even taught the children the Tarantella! This week our Library Director, Kimberly is taking children on a tour of Brazil!
