VERMONT READS…..
The Vermont Humanities Council is once again sponsoring a statewide READ. The title this year is THE EMPEROR WAS DIVINE
The book is about the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II and how they handled the disruption to their lives. It is readable from 5th grade through adult and is great for family discussions. We will be having several related programs between now and the end of the summer. We have lots of copies of the book so come in and borrow one!

JULY
Origami Demonstration and Workshop for Adults and an opportunity to learn how to make sushi.

SUMMER VACATION
This year’s Summer Reading Theme is “Be Creative @ Your Library” and I am planning two activity weeks. They will each run Mon. – Thur. from 10 am – Noon.
The first, in July, will be for 4 yr olds through 7 years. The second will be in August for children 8 and older. Both will have a theme of Asian Culture and include stories, games, crafts, creative writing and more. If you are interested, please let the library know. 867-5774.
