We had a blast at our Gingerbread House Workshops ! Check it out!

We cut, scooped, carved, peeled and had a great time at our second annual Pumpkin Carving Night at the Library! Here is a sampling of the fun we had.

what do you think about when you think about FALL? football, leaves falling, squirrels gathering nuts, apples, pumpkins?

well, those are some of the things that I think about as the nights get cooler and the days get shorter.....that and storytimes at the library!

SUMMERTIME AT THE LIBRARY

It was a busy June here in the children's department and it looks to be an even busier July! Besides storytimes for the little ones and activity clubs for the school age children we had our 39th annual Pet Show. Here are some pictures from the Pet Show.

And as you know, we can't get enough of our animals here at the Pleasant Hills Library! So on Tuesday, June 29th we invited Kathy, Ashley and Demi from the National Aviary to come visit us! Boy did they bring in the crowd! Ok, it was actually Demi, the penguin, who was getting all the attention, but we couldn't have done it without Kathy and Ashley! Thanks, guys!
