Sometimes things just align!
Joyce was cataloging some new books and noticed that the two bottom books, which were side by side on the desk, made a statement. We then noticed that 3 more books in that pile added to it. Enjoy!

The kids’ room at the library is often abuzz with activity, and this month that included the metamorphosis of Monarch caterpillars and butterflies🐛🦋! Stop by the kids’ room this week and if you're lucky you may get to see a new, beautiful Monarch butterfly or two!

We started a few weeks ago with some little caterpillars on milkweed and ended up with 6 caterpillars total! Those caterpillars munched milkweed over a couple of weeks, then made their chrysalises, and are now in various stages of development. We’ve released 2 butterflies already, and expect another four to emerge at various points within the week. These are likely migratory butterflies which will migrate South for the winter.
