It's a Jungle In Here!

We are pleased to be participating in the TD Summer Reading Programs once again.

The theme is Destingation Jungle. Kids, 12 and under, who register with their local library for the TD Summer Reading Club receive a poster, stickers and an activity book all free as a part of their reading kit.

Come explore the wonders of nature in the jungles of the world, go on exciting voyages and travel to exotic lands by exploring the shelves of your local library. See our booklist suggestions and find a jungle in your own back yard.

Oh, and if you're older than 12, but have unpaid book fines, if you come in and dance with our Jungle Parrot, rumour is Peggy may just forgive what you owe...
