The Friends of the Library would like to thank John Lehmann Electric for the very generous donation made to the library. Without the support of our businesses and citizens we would not be able to have such a nice library. It is support like this that helps us keep our computer room up and running, our copy and fax machines running efficiently and our bookshelves stocked with the most recent bestselling books by everyone’s favorite authors.
The Friends would also like to thank Brenda (Clifton) Hamm for her generous donation in memory of her parents Randy and Evelyn Clifton.
Joanna Bateman had quite a crowd at this week’s Story Time. They were read “Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes” written by Eric Litwin with art by James Dean (creator of Pete the Cat.) After the story they had coloring sheets with a shoe and got to pick their own shoe color.
We received a few new books this week courtesy of the grant money received from the Tocker Foundation. We have by Gabrielle Zavin’s “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow,” a New York Times best seller that John Green of the New York Times calls “delightful and absorbing, utterly brilliant.” It was named one of the Best Books of the Year by The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, TIME, GoodReads, and Oprah Daily. The storyline follows Sam and Sadie two college friends, often in love, but never lovers. They become creative partners in a dazzling and intricately imagined world of video game design, where success brings them fame, joy, tragedy, duplicity and, ultimately, a kind of immortality. It is a love story, but not one you have read before.
From the creator of the Joe Pickett series C. J. Box we have the just released “Three-Inch Teeth,” number twentyfour in the series. Pickett a Wyoming game warden faces two different kinds of rampaging beasts—one animal, one human—in this riveting new novel. A rogue grizzly bear has gone on a rampage— killing, among others, the potential fiancé of Joe’s daughter. At the same time, Dallas Cates, who Joe helped lock up years ago, is released from prison with a special list tattooed on his skin. He wants revenge on the people who sent him away: the six people he blames for the deaths of his entire family and the loss of his reputation and property. Using the grizzly attacks as cover, Cates sets out to methodically check off his list. The problem is, bothNateRomanowskiand Joe Pickett are on it.
Check it all out at the library.
