Sub-zero Storytime


With schools closed due to sub-zero temperatures and newspeople warning about signs of frostbite, some families brought little ones to the library for a lively storytime about winter weather. If you've ever wondered why your snowman is looking a little rugged in the morning you should check out "Snowmen at Night" by Caralyn Buehner. Kids enjoyed learning about the secret life of snowmen and Mrs. Stanley performed a magic trick where MORE snow appeared (as if we didn't have enough already). Other books to ward off cabin fever include "The Biggest Snowman Ever" by Steven Kroll, "Martin MacGregor's Snowman" by Lisa Broadie Cook, and "One Snowy Day" by Jeffrey Scherer.
