Storytime

If you've never experienced storytime, you are missing out! Not only do we read stories, do crafts, play games, sing songs, and have an all-around great time, sometimes we host AMAZING guests such as Kimberley Weggeland's tortoises and chinchilla. Other times, our phenomenal storytime parents surprise us with cool treats. Yesterday was one of those storytimes. Carmen brought her latte maker and treated all the adults to scrumptious caffeinated drinks, and Mark brought freshly baked (still warm) scones for kids and adults to devour. It was wonderful!

You see, storytime isn't just for the kids. It's also for adults who want to socialize, share parenting stories, and let their kids play together, even after storytime is over. Come on over to storytime: Tuesdays at 10 and/or 11 a.m., Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. We can't guarantee you fresh lattes and scones, but we can guarantee a great time.

Blog re-do

If you're wondering why some of the stuff on our HPL "Hot News!" webpage is showing up here on our blog, it's because we're doing some reformatting and moving everything onto our blog. Sorry for the duplications!

Why Vampires? (reprise)


The overwhelming popularity of vampire books has inspired us to create this SlideCast. Click HERE or on the image at left to listen to an interview, reviews, and musings on why vampires are so cool, and some vampire stuff you can find at the library.
