Summer Reading, can you keep up!

It's been a busy week as summer reading continues at the library.  Right now we have 670 kids signed up and more than 240 teens. Just over 85 adults have turned in reading slips to be entered in our drawing!  It's been crazy! 

Yesterday kids took part in a craft activity where they could write a story and make a scratch art sea creature.  The stories were great as everyone described what they saw on their visit to the beach and especially what they had for lunch.  I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

The yo-yo workshops have drawn a crowd and last week kids took part in a magic workshop led by local magician Ron Price.  We learned tricks like the "Professor's Nightmare" and the "Matrix".  If you missed the magic workshop, stop at the library and pick up one of the great magic books we have on the shelf.  There's always some kind of magic happening at the Amherst Public Library!
