The library will be hosting a Fabulous Friday event from 1 to 3 pm on Friday, Mar. 22, and a special wrap-up event from 1 to 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Mar. 23 which will include a visual treasure hunt and a magic show (which starts at 1:30 p.m.)
Book Clubs
And last but not least, our book club will be meeting on Wednesday, Mar. 27 (1:30 p.m.) in Christina Lake and Thursday, Mar. 28 (7 p.m.) at the library – the March selection is The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot, a wonderfully engaging, thought-provoking, and bestselling work of non-fiction.
Happy Storytelling!
