Facing summer with new books
New at the library this week are Robert Ludlum’s “The Bourne Deception” by Eric Van Lustbader and “Finger Lickin’ Fifteen” by Janet Evanovich.
Not new, but new to us, are “Murder on K Street” (2007) by Margaret Truman, “On, Off” (2006) by Colleen McCullough and “Mortal Danger and Other True Cases” by Ann Rule.
Even though Summer Reading Programs are over, we want to encourage you to keep bring the children to the library.
We have a nice children’s area where you could read books to them and they can work puzzles and just play.
It is so important that children be exposed to books early and often.
Summer Reading Program wound up with a bang with Jennifer Lance, the “Critter Lady,” doing a wonderful presentation last Tuesday.
Her imitations of owls is just amazing! And the children seemed to enjoy being able to touch some of the animals and see others.
We so appreciate her visiting our library and hope to have her back next year.
The library will be closed Friday, July 3 and Saturday, July 4 for the holidays. Have a safe and fun 4th of July and we will see you next week!

An Oscar for John
It would be pretty hard not to focus this week’s column on the granddaddy of them all when it comes to award shows, and I am speaking of the Academy Awards being presented “live from the Kodak Theatre” on Hollywood Boulevard tonight.
