How Do We Come Up with this Stuff

Lock-ins, trips to the movies, crafts, Halloween parties, angry bird events - have you ever wondered how the library comes up with these program ideas?  Many of these programs come from kids just like you.  The Teen Advisory Board works with the Youth Services Librarian, Miss Renee, to create a variety of events for you.  Sometimes Miss Renee suggests the ideas and the Board members give their opinion and sometimes they give their ideas to Miss Renee and she tells whether an event will work.  Do you have some great ideas?  Come to a Teen Advisory Board meeting and find out what it's all about and share your ideas there.    Meetings are held at 6:00 pm every 4th Tuesday of each month.  Please come and join us.

Book Talk

Amber House
by Kelly Moore

A wonderfully haunting book about the past and present.  While exploring her family ancestral home, Sarah begins having visions of the past.  Slowly she comes to discover that there are many secrets hidden in this home.  But when her visions begin to see and speak to her, Sarah begins to feel that there is a presence that threatens the person she holds most dear, her little brother Sam.  It was a fantastic book that I couldn't put down.  Wonderfully written with just the right amount of mystery.
