Bookworms!
We have had two very successful bookmobile outings this past month.
Thank you to Jenny who has helped get those books checked out!
We will definitely make it a bookmobile outing whenever playgroup meets.

On a sad note, Maurice Sendak author of Where The Wild Things Are passed this week.
As an homage to him...
Let's all read this classic book this week! 
Check out this youtube claymation movie, my kids love it.

Spring Kick Off!! Sunday the 25th in Palermo! A SUCCESS!!

Yesterday was an incredibly beautiful day!! Full of sunshine. We could not have asked for a better day to kick off Spring and have a little get together!
So many people came to picnic under the trees... To read some books! Susy organized a wonderful activity, the Reading Trees were a huge success...even if we didn't get to all the trees!! Kids and adults alike were really into the idea. Thank you so much to our reading volunteers who really captivated the younger kids with their reading.
Everyone enjoyed the playground, got to play a little futbol and many got to check out some books!
We got to kick off the bookmobile idea. Many of the kids checked out some books, and were also able to return their books without having to make it out to the library out in Belgrano.
We hope to be able to do this sort of thing more often, it's so nice for our kids to get together (not to mention the adults)!

It's really commendable how we are instilling reading to our children. We are making it fun... fun as going to the park!
The best part of all, is how we are making reading as enjoyable as playing soccer or climbing on the monkey bars!

Thank you everyone!

We're back...

Well, it's been a year, it's been a year! Yippee!! I apologize for all of you that were trying to follow up on what was going on with the Library by checking on the blog. I failed you. ALL! My bad, I really was keeping everyone informed via the yahoo group site, but now realize there was others who were interested.
So, 2 days before our one year anniversary shindig, I am back!
A little bit of an update for you all...
We now have over 1200 books available for everyone to come check out!
Thanks to those who come to the Library that make it all worth it.
