Hi All!
I've created a virtual library to showcase the books that the Summer Reading Committee has chosen for Summer of 2020. Each book cover has a link to book trailer on YouTube. If you click on the TV it will bring you to the flyer with a summary for each book. If you click on the laptop you can read the directions on how to complete your summer reading. Both links are English and Spanish. You can also click on the link that will bring you straight back here. Finally, the chalkboard has a link to the Willimantic Public Library's catalog so you can look for the books you want!

One of my bucket list vacations is to see Yellowstone National Park. Most of which is due to the flourishing wolf population. Though also Yellowstone has so many natural wonders, it is difficult to fathom that they exist in one place. Since we're all stuck where we are, I thought it would be nice to have a visit. Personally I'm looking forward to the Mammoth Hot Springs. Click below to see more!

Hello from Library Land!
Which is technically my couch, but still, books are on my brain. I've been following a lot of publishers and companies who deal with ebooks or audiobooks lately. (Big surprise there, right?) One of the most recent company to offer free access is Junior Library Guild. These folks are fantastic at their jobs. I mean, they're super qualified to do what they do. Those of you who have had me know what I'm talking about; when evaluating your sources make sure they're qualified. At any rate, enjoy FREE ebooks and audiobooks for you entertainment by clicking on the image above!

Yesterday, I shared a Harry Potter digital escape room. Today, a Dog Man themed one!
Hey Hey Hey!
I hope everyone is feeling fantastic on what was a warmer Tuesday. I wanted to pass along this fun Harry Potter themed digital escape room. It was originally designed by Sydney Krawiec, Youth Services Librarian at Peters Township Public Library in McMurray, PA. You can try and escape the room by yourself or compete against some other people in your family! Click the Hogwarts Train on your left to access it.

You know I'm always in the mood for a good book. Especially one that would keep you on the edge of your seat. I know a good amount of you are fans of the I Survived series. Luckily, I have a treat for you! Here is Lauren Tarshis reading the first 2 chapters of her book I Survived The Sinking of the Titanic, 1912. Chapter 3 & 4 are also available on You Tube for you to enjoy.
As always, happy reading!

In some fun exercise news, the YMCA has posted videos you can enjoy for FREE. Even if you can't get outside, you should still get your blood pumping and keep that brain healthy!
