Visit from the 2nd Graders

The second graders from Freedom Elementary School came to the library today. I read them "If You Find a Rock" and they had many comments about the rocks they have known and loved. Several of them noticed the picture in the book that matched the cover. Very observant! Almost all of them had filled out applications for library cards and were able to choose a book or a magazine to borrow. They made their selections quickly and many started reading right away. The students entered the "Guess How Many?" contest, estimating how many pretzels were in the jar. Madelyn Glavin guessed the exact number -- 120 -- and will be able to select a free book next time she comes to the library. Congratulations, Madelyn! Good guessing!
