Audiobooks for children at the library

 The library has a good collection of juvenile audio books.  Audiobooks might provide a way to have a quiet time at home or in the car.  A few of the titles are “A Christmas Dream” by Louisa May Alcott;  “Adventure According to Humphrey” by Betty Birney;  “Blubber” by Judy Blume;  3 of “Allie Finkle’s Rules for Girls” by Meg Cabot; “Woods Runner” by Gary Paulson;  and “Down the Yukon” by Will Hobbs.  There are others by good children’s authors — Andrew Clements, Ann Martin, and Sharon Creech.

Newest library staff

 Next week, we will be starting fresh with our new library clerk, Leta Liesch.  She will be busy for a while getting acquainted with the library and the computers.  Stop in a say hi to her.  The library is looking forward to having Leta in the children’s section and planning reading programs for the community.

Farmers’ Day plans at the library

 The Friends of the Kimball Public Library are making their plans for Farmer’s Day on September 24.  There will be the annual big book sale beginning at approximately 11:00 right after the parade.  And on display in the Cultural Room will be wood carving crafters.  There is still room for more crafters, so if you are a wood crafter and want to join in displaying your work, please sign up at the library.
