Are you staying in town this spring break, or do you have grandkids visiting?

Come check out books and movies like "The Gardener" by Sarah Stewart. It's a beautiful story too long for our Library Class, about a girl who gets sent to live with her uncle in the city during the Great Depression and how she literally blooms where she's planted.

Come to Ages 3-5 Library Class on Tuesday, March 14 for shorter stories and activities about gardens, including planting a marigold. Older children are welcome!
