All Around the APL
Volume 1    May 2020
Our doors might be closed,
but we are still here for you.
These are uncertain times, and anxiety levels are understandably high.  Life is a bit, well, unusual.
Take a deep breath and know your library is here to get you through these difficult days. We've got great escapes for everyone! 
 
KIDS
Story Hour 
 
We miss all our story hour friends but you and your child can check out our Facebook page to possibly see Miss Amy read a story hour favorite.  Comfy pajamas and a cozy blanket are totally recommended.

Looking for some good books? 
  
Do those distance learning plans ask your child to read for 20 minutes a day? The Tumble Book Library can help! Tumble Book Library is full of fabulous stories that our young patrons can listen to or read for themselves.  There are also fun activities and games to explore.
