Bonnie’s Books celebrated the final Storytime of the summer with a party on Tuesday, July 26. This storytime series began in August of 2021, with each session of Bonnie’s Books featuring a letter of the alphabet. Books, crafts, songs, and activities related to the corresponding letter and children added to their own alphabet book each week.
Following storytime, the children celebrated the dedication of Jeffersonville’s Little Free Library (LFL) located in the park. The LFL is sponsored by Altrusa and Carnegie Public Library. Storytimes in Washington Court House and Jeffersonville are on hiatus for the month of August. Please join us again on Tuesdays and Thursdays in September!
Stop by the library or check out our Facebook page in upcoming weeks for results of the library’s adult & teen Tiny Art Show, and kids’ Shark Drawing display! We just know you will love seeing the unique works of art as much as we do!
