Liam picks a winner! Nora acts goofy!

Congratulations to Joyce Silke, the first winner in our Adult Summer Reading Program. Once you register to participate, you fill out a form for each book you read to be entered into a weekly drawing for some great prizes from local businesses. Joyce chose a $10 gift certificate from Lazy Susan's Restaurant and two $5 gift certificates from the Freedom Farm Stand. Many thanks to these businesses for supporting the Freedom Public Library. Thanks also to the Valley Originals Restaurants, A Second Glance Hair Salon, King Pine Ski Area, Mount Washington Hotel, Hartmann Model Railroad Museum, Dana Cunningham and Kevin's Discount Center!

Thomas spins a plate

During question and answer period after Double Vision's performance at the school last week, Thomas told Jody Scalise that he, too, can spin a plate. Jody invited him up on stage to show off his talent. Thomas got a big round of applause!

Reading program off to a great start!

Wednesday, June 14th was the last day of school for Freedom Elementary and a half-day at that. By the time the library closed at 2:00, we had 25 kids signed up for the summer reading program already. If the children sign up by Friday, they get to choose a free book.

It was the last day of school AND Rebecca's birthday! Here she is with her sister Kathryn, choosing her free book.




Melanie wastes no time getting started on reading.

Thar be pirates at the library!

Who be these pirates?

And yet another cat

The Davis girls brought their beautiful cat Leo to visit the library this week. Leo is Phoebe's big brother... she visited recently too. Leo wasn't so sure he liked the library and he kept coming back to this window. I think he wished he were outside instead. Maybe he's not much of a reader. He is so black I had to lighten this photo considerably to show his handsome face. Thanks for visiting the library, Leo. Sorry it wasn't your kind of place.
