Library Sleepover - December 20/21

12/20/2024

We're hosting a Polar Express sleepover event on December 20th - 21st. We had so much fun with the sleepover we did for Summer Reading, that we decided to do a holiday themed one too!

The sleepover is for ages 6 - 14. Registration is required as there are a limited number of spots available. Permission slips are due to us by December 13th.

We're also looking for a couple of parent chaperones!

Drop off is 7pm; pickup is 8am.

East Kingston Book Club - December 18

12/18/2024

The East Kingston Book Club December pick is available at the library.
The nonfiction selection is Barbara Kingsolver's Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life.
Kingsolver and her family decided solely to eat locally raised food for one year. They vowed to buy food raised in their own neighborhood, grow it themselves, or learn to live without it. Join us for this part memoir, part journalistic investigation.
