Words with Miss Renee
Hello Readers!
Libraries have been getting a lot of attention lately, which has me thinking about all of the little ways a library can enhance a community. I feel incredibly lucky to have a front row seat to these opportunities. I'll be sharing these glimmers of positivity in the next few months, because frankly, it's too selfish of me to keep them to myself!
Libraries provide opportunities for leadership! Our Tween and Teen Advisory Boards give power youth by allowing them direct influence on upcoming programs. We can hash out ideas and get input on how kids and teen view the library. In addition, they meet kids of other ages and from other methods of schooling. Oh, and they usually like the snacks too!
If you have an 8-12 year old that would like to try out a leadership experience, TWAB (Tween Advisory Board) meets today from 4:30-5:30! We just meet 4 times per year.
Registration for our programs are found here!
Yours in literacy and life,
Renee Bowman
Youth Services Manager
Juvenile Mystery (JM Roy)
Solve Animal Mysteries from A to Z! Young clue hunters Abbi, Daniel, and Lydia sniff out the mystery behind a group of missing alpacas. Inspired by Ron Roy's beloved A to Z Mysteries series, this spin-off is perfect for budding young chapter-book readers--and future detectives!
A is for ALPACAS . . .
Juvenile PIcture Book (JP Hop)
This fresh, hilarious retelling of Cinderella --told by the mouse who will become Cinderella's coach horse--has a girl-power ending, a celebration of inclusivity, illustrations by a Caldecott Medalist...and even an explanation of how fairy tale pumpkins got their name!
If you thought you knew the fairy tale CINDERELLA, think again!
Juvenile Graphic Novel (JGN Abd)
The action of Moana meets the humor of books like Dog Man in this explosive and uproariously funny third book following Barb and her friends as they face off against Witch Head’s Shadow Army.
Friends of the Library
All of our events are made possible through the generosity of the Friends of the Library. The Friends of the Library was founded to support the Danville Public Library in various ways. They sponsor all library programs as well as help buy the supplies/equipment needed for programs through membership dues and fundraising activities. We are always looking for more members!
