          OH, AND THERE'S ONE THING I FORGOT. 
          WE WILL NOT BE HAVING REGULAR PROGRAMMING FROM MARCH 20TH THROUGH THE 24TH. 
          OKAY, THAT SOUNDS GREAT. 
          WELL NOW HERE'S BLAIR TO TELL US ABOUT THE LATEST ENTRY IN HER TURNING THE PAGES READING CHALLENGE. 
          THANK YOU, PETER. 
          TODAY I AM IN ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES IN THE LIBRARY KIDS NONFICTION TALES. 
          I LIKE THIS SECTION SO MUCH BECAUSE I CAN READ ABOUT FAIRIES, TROLLS, AND GOBLINS. 
          I CAN READ ABOUT ZEUS AND POSEIDON AND I CAN ALSO READ A COLLECTION OF POETRY, WHICH JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THE TURNING PAGES READING CHALLENGES. 
          SO TODAY I'M SHARING TWO OF MY NEW FAVORITES THAT WE GOT IN READY FOR SPAGHETTI AND MARSHMALLOW. 
          CLOUDS. 
          READY FOR SPAGHETTI IS PERFECT FOR THE YOUNG BEGINNING READERS. 
          YOU CAN MAKE ALL KINDS OF FUNNY SOUNDS AND GO THROUGH DAILY CHORES WITH SOME HUMOR. 
          MARSHMALLOW CLOUDS IS GOOD FOR YOUR OLDER READER BECAUSE IT HAS BEAUTIFUL POETRY AND PROSE AND IT MAKES WONDERFUL ILLUSTRATIONS OF EVERYDAY LIFE. 
          AND FOR YOU OLDER READERS. 
          HERE'S SARAH WITH HER TURNING PAGES SUGGESTION. 
          THANKS BLAIR. 
          DO YOU THINK POETRY HAS TO BE SERIOUS AND SCHOLARLY OR MAKE YOU WANNA SMACK YOUR HEAD ON A TABLE? NOT SO. 
          LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO OLD POSSUM'S BOOK OF PRACTICAL CATS BY TS ELLIOT. 
          IF THIS SOUNDS A BIT FAMILIAR TO YOU, YES IT IS THE INSPIRATION FOR THE MUSICAL CATS. 
          BUT IF YOU'VE ONLY SEEN THE PLAY OR THE MOVIE, DEFINITELY GIVE THIS ONE A LOOK. 
          WE HAVE THE BOOK AVAILABLE FOR CHECKOUT AT THE LIBRARY, OR YOU CAN CHECK OUT THE EBOOK FROM HOOPLA DIGITAL. 
          AND NOW HERE'S TRINNY WITH THIS MONTH'S OUTREACH ACTIVITIES. 
          THANKS, SARAH. 
          I'M HERE WITH ERIN AND WE ARE HERE TO TELL YOU WHERE WE'LL BE IN MARCH. 
          BRING YOUR KIDS OF ALL AGES TO JOIN US FOR READING ACROSS AMERICA AT CHICKEN AND PICKLE ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 8TH FROM SIX TO 8:00 PM THE LIBRARY WILL HAVE A STORY TIME FOR CHILDREN AGES FIVE YEARS AND YOUNGER KIDS SIX YEARS AND OLDER WILL BE PAIRED UP TO READ TOGETHER. 
          THIS EVENT IS FREE TO EVERYONE.

          COME CHECK OUT OUR TABLE. 
          WE WILL HAVE GREAT LIBRARY INFORMATION FOR YOU TO CHECK OUT. 
          BACK TO YOU, PETER AND JENNIFER.
