February is Library Lovers’ Month!
Meet a Kangaroo!

This is a great opportunity to meet a kangaroo or wallaby joey at the library. Presented by Roos2u, this program teaches how these lovable animals came into the world and how important their conservation is.
Book Club: The Magic Assembly
Saturday, Feb. 29, 11:00 am
Brian Curry combines beloved books with funny, scary, and amazing magic, bringing classic literature to life. For example, for Roald Dahl’s Matilda, students will see a table float with the powers of Mr. Curry’s mind.
