Summer StoryWalk

If you are on your way to the pool, the fitness walk, or the dog park at Memorial Park, be sure to check out our summer Storywalk featuring, If I Had a Dinosaur by Alex Barrow.

If I Had a Dinosaur

A little girl dreams of having her very own pet. But what kind of animal would make the best companion? A mouse is too small, a cat is too ordinary, and a fish is too . . . wet! As she plays with her toy dinosaur, inspiration strikes. What about a real, live dinosaur? She could ride it to school. It would need lots of food to eat, a swimming pool to drink from, and a dino flap so it could come and go!

June Classics Book Club

Join us Tuesday June 23, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. when we discuss Mildred Pierce by James M. Cain

Mildred Pierce had gorgeous legs, a way with a skillet, and a bone-deep core of toughness. She used those attributes to survive a divorce and poverty and to claw her way out of the lower middle class. But Mildred also had two weaknesses: a yen for shiftless men, and an unreasoning devotion to a monstrous daughter.

Out of these elements, Cain creates a novel of acute social observation and devastating emotional violence, with a heroine whose ambitions and sufferings are never less than recognizable.

Ask at the desk for a copy of this classic.
