Pember Wish List

Throughout December, we had a Wish List in the library and posted online.

We got many donations for childrens’ books and movies, and a couple of audio books. We truly appreciate the generosity of all the people who are helping us to add to our collection.

I want everyone to know that we were totally blown away by a lovely letter stating that dreams do come true and enclosing a check for $250 to help us replace the storm door at our handicap entrance.

THANK you.

Quilling class

Penguin Awareness Day

Did you know? Penguins are found in Antarctica, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Peru, the Falkland Islands, and the Galapagos Islands. Elsewhere, they are only found in zoos.

Penguin Awareness Day is January 20. Learn about and appreciate this native of Antarctica.

Beth from the Pawlet Library loaned us some of her stuffed penguins to accent the books and videos we have about penguins.
