Such a beautiful scene greets students, staff, parents and visitors to the library!
Before the holiday break, students crafted snowflakes (no two are alike!) and wrote on them their name and a favorite book, series or author. We have everything from "Star Wars" to Sharon Creech's "Bloomability."
"Snowflake Bentley," a biography by Jacqueline Briggs Martin, tells readers about Wilson Bentley, the first photographer of snowflakes. The book (call number B Ben) not only tells the interesting story of this pioneer, but also features stunning Caldecott Medal woodblock prints of snowflakes by illustrator Mary Azarian.
