Summer news from your neighborhood library

By Kathy House Big Sky Community Librarian

Fizz, Boom, Read!

The 2014 summer reading program is off to a great start, and more than 75 patrons attended the Discovery Center’s Birds of Prey program on June 25. Wednesday, July 16 saw Fun with Oobleck! Based on Dr. Suess’ book “Bartholomew and the Oobleck,” Mrs. House made Oobleck with summer readers. A great crowd came in for some Fizz Boom Read! fun, and got nice and messy.

All programs are sponsored by the Friends of the Library and are free and open to the public.
