Happy New Year from all of us at the Dickens County Spur Public Library.
This past month has been filled with many joyous holiday memories. We had two craft nights with some amazing crafters and hope to keep crafting into the New Year. We were honored to be included with the City of Spur in Spur’s firstever lighted Christmas Parade, in which we won third place with the Whoville float from Dr. Seuss’s “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” Everyone did a great job on their floats.
We hope to have a game night soon. Charlotte Sprayberry and I have been working on doing this for a while. It is shaping into what is going to be a lot of fun. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for when the event will happen, because you won’t want to miss out on the fun.
Here is a list of the new books we have received for the youth of Dickens County: “Barb the Last Berzerker,” a graphic novel by Dan and Jason; “Negative Cat,” an easy reader by Sophie Blackall; “See the Dog,” an easy reader by David LaRochelle; “Otto: A Palindrama,” a graphic novel told entirely in palindromes by Jon Agee; “The Thing Lenny Loves Most about Baseball,” an easy reader by Andrew Larsen; and “Long Road to the Circus,” a fiction chapter book by Betsy Bird.
