Telling Tales

Join Ms. Peggy on Friday:  Feb. 17th, 24th and March 2nd, from 10.30 to 11.00 a.m.

She'll be spinning enchanting tales, suitable for all ages from 2 on up to 102 (and maybe even more)  Tales as old as time, as young as spring. Tales to make young minds light up and old hearts sing.

Please register at the Library, 705 635 3319 by Feb. 15 so she can be sure to have all her tales in a row and not get her tales in a knot.

After all, story-telling is a time-honoured tradition, and our Ms. Peggy knows how to spin a yarn.

Most of us are familiar with the traditional beginning, "Once upon a time."  And most of us know the ending, "Happily Ever After."     How many of you are familiar with another traditional ending to stories --

"Three apples fell from heaven: one for the teller, one for the listener, and one for the one who heard."

Peggy's Puzzled

There are jigsaw pieces all over the table at the Dwight Library.

Peggy recently got a new jigsaw -- very colourful, lots of pieces.


She is puzzled, and needs some help.

So she's issued a challenge to all the library patrons to stop by and help her put at least one piece in its place. 

Puzzles are a time-honoured winter and cottage activity. There is something quite entrancing about the process.

Unless you have one, like we did once, that was impossible. Truly.  All one shade of purple, no edges, irregular in shape.  The puzzle from hell.

Not this one. It's pretty, and has a lovely picture to guide us all along.

It would also be, it would seem, impossible to resist.  (or should that be Im-puzzle-able?)

Come on in, see what's new at the Library. Check out our books, e-readers, magazines, computers. Enjoy some company, catch up with the neighbours.

And help Peggy be less Puzzled!
