Summer reading round up!

Thank you to everyone who participated in our summer reading program Tails and Tales 2021 at the Bridgewater Public Library.  We had a lot of fun this summer with take and make crafts, Virtual Princess Story Times, Virtual PJ Story Times, Henry the Juggler, Art with Corinne and Story Time with Mrs. Davis in Music Alley.  It was great to see so many people here getting their library books!

Drawing and comics: Art at the library

This week, let’s highlight art.

There are a lot of examples of art in the children’s room, from our posters and framed pictures to the covers of books. Photography is a type of art and is often featured on the covers of nonfiction books. Did you see our shark display last month? There were photos of sharks on the covers of many of the books. Picture books contain a lot of artwork, mostly in the form of illustrations. Do you have a favorite picture book?& What do you like about the pictures?
