September 11th's story hour was enjoyed outdoors at the large picnic table in the library’s backyard.   The book we read was Around the Pond: Who’s Been Here? by Lindsay Barrett George.  In the story, a brother and sister head out to pick blueberries and find eight different clues that describe nature’s creatures and their habitats. The children did a wonderful job listening to the clues and then helped each other determine the animal that matched the clue.  Then it was our own scavenger hunt time! Equipped with a list and a tray to collect things in, everyone headed out to find things in nature like: “a twig shaped like the letter Y” or “something that starts with the first letter of your name.” It was great fun for all getting outside and seeing what can be found in our own backyard.

Story Time takes place each Thursday at 10:30 and all are welcome to enjoy great books and activities that follow.
