Youth Book Club in a Bag PDF Print

Vernon Area Public Library District’s newest service, Book Club in a Bag, offers children the chance to explore a world beyond Lake County through books. This unique and innovative collection offers a quick and easy way to start a book club or hold a book discussion.

Book Club in a Bag includes ten copies of a popular book, information about the author, discussion questions, and an activity related to the book, all packaged in a sturdy zipper bag ready for check-out. Each tote may be checked out for 8 weeks. Here are the books that are available, along with a summary for each book.  Visit or call Youth Services at 847-634-3650 for more details.
 
Glass Slipper Thank You! PDF Print

 

A special thanks goes out to all who helped make the Glass Slipper project a huge success. In two short weeks, 91 dresses were collected! Thank you also to Zengler Cleaners who graciously partnered with us to pick up, clean and deliver the dresses.

 
Warm up with a look back at our Monster Truck Birthday Bash PDF Print

Kids NewsTruck Event Aug09 155.jpgTired of the snow?  Warm up with a look back at all the fun we had at the Monster Truck Birthday Bash in August!! Various trucks filled our parking lot, including tractors, emergency vehicles, construction rigs and even a souped up Monster truck called Mechanical Mischief!

The Triple Threat Band entertained us with a mix of songs from the 70s to today.  We even had a visit from Bob the Builder! Thanks for participating in this fun event. We hope you had as much fun as we did!  

Here's the Flickr set for all the pictures.
