Thurs, Apr. 16, 4-5PM Join us at the library for a creative, confidence-boosting teen workshop where you’ll design your own pair of symbolic wings! Each participant will build a set of wings using feathers inscribed with words and affirmations written by others in the group—qualities, strengths, and traits that make you uniquely you. As the feathers come together, so does a powerful reminder of how you’re seen and valued by your community. Come ready to create, connect, and leave lifted by the positive words that help you soar. Acompáñanos en la biblioteca durante un taller creativo para adolescentes en el que diseñarás tu propio par de alas simbólicas y reafirmarás tu confianza. Cada participante construirá un par de alas utilizando plumas grabadas con palabras y afirmaciones escritas por otros en el grupo — cualidades, fortalezas y las cualidades que te hacen ser excepcionalmente tú. Conforme las plumas se van uniendo, irá surgiendo un poderoso recordatorio sobre la manera en que otras personas en la comunidad te perciben y te valoran. Ven y prepárate para crear y conectar, y regresa a casa con el impulso de palabras positivas que te ayudarán a volar.

The Perilous Journey of the Donner Party: Updated Edition
by Marian Calabro
The Perilous Journey of the Donner Party: Updated Second Edition. The pioneers known as the Donner Party are remembered for their cannibalism. But there is much more to their saga. Marian Calabro has updated her award-winning Perilous Journey of the Donner Party with recently discovered information, fresh observations, and additional photos. These elements reveal new aspects of a timeless survival story. Calabro neither shrinks from nor sensationalizes the difficult aspects of the story. - Kirkus Reviews (starred review, first edition) Praise for the First Edition Truth is indeed as spellbinding as fiction. The research is meticulous and the telling, almost conversational in tone, is riveting.-Boston Globe Eerie and mesmerizing.-Atlanta Journal-Constitution Calabro draws the people of the story with a respectful hand, and her follow-up with descendants returns us full circle to our own lives, enriched with a new perspective. We were also impressed by the use of primary source material and] the good index, bibiography, suggested reading lists, and lists of Donner Party members. -California Library Association, Beatty Award Winner for the year's best history book about California.
