Words with Miss Renee
Hello Readers!
Did you know we have a Teen Comfort Cabinet in our Teen Room, available for anyone in need to use? Thanks to a grant from Hendricks Regional Health and our friends from The Miles We Walk, we have FREE hygiene products, snacks, and feminine products for those that need it. There's no need to ask for them, just simply open up the supply cabinet and take what you need.
Here's to hoping the school year is off to a successful start!
Registration for our programs are found here!
Yours in literacy and life,
Renee Bowman
Youth Services Manager

Juvenile Picture Book (JP Kar)
This companion book to The Invisible String—which has sold 1.5 million copies to date—offers a complete socio-emotional toolkit for back-to-school—and your whole life!
It’s Mila’s first day of school, but mixed with excitement is worry. What if she can’t find her classroom? What if no one likes her? What if she’s too nervous to speak up? With a little advice from her brother, she learns that she has everything she needs right in her Invisible Backpack: an Invisible Microphone to help her find her voice, an Invisible Flashlight for when she’s feeling lost, an Invisible Net to catch her if she falls, and much more. Her pack is bottomless! The Invisible String is the very first thing that she puts in her pack—and each time she uses it, it gets bigger and better.
