Friday, August 3rd, is the last day to turn in completed Summer Reading Club reading logs. Come by the library anytime before Friday at closing time (6:00pm) to turn in your log, collect your reward and draw for prizes. You worked hard all summer long so don't miss out on your prize- you earned it!

I Read To Animals is a unique program that we introduced last year. Made possible by a grant received from the Texas State Library, the program is very effective at helping children to practice reading by alleviating the fear and embarrassment that is often associated with reading aloud in a classroom setting. Animals are friendly, patient listeners and can be great confidence builders.

We will be offering another session of I Read To Animals on Wednesday, August 15th at 3:00 PM.. We will use this time to allow kids to come into the library and practice their reading skills by reading aloud to real animals, provided by the Texas Star Rescue group. Grab your favorite animal-related book and come on into the library during this special time to sharpen those reading skills while entertaining a new furry friend!

For more information, stop by the library or call Miss Monica at 903-237-1027.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

Hope to see you there!
