Can't Stop Storytime

Neither asphalt, nor trucks, nor large men in orange vests can stop determined people from getting to storytime at Amherst Township Park.  Today we had 22 people who hiked, biked, and  even came by scooter to attend our Tuesday Storytime in the Park. 

Mrs. Stanley was ready with stories about vacation and at some points the crowd had to help with some of the lines that repeated in the one book as we all shouted "summery, Saturday morning!" over the drone of the big construction equipment.

Kids who did make it to storytime saw an extra bonus as we spotted a rabbit hopping by and a bird flew into the shelter house to feed her three babies in the nest.  It was a vacation from the library as we shared some nice stories in  the park and marvelled at the joys of nature so close....even with all the noisy trucks.

Amherst Township Park will have a nice paved parking lot next week when we return for our next storytime in the park on Tuesday, June 28 at 10:30 p.m.  Maybe some of the construction workers will stop by again.  You know they really liked that last book we read!
