On September 25 visit the library from 1:30—2:30 p.m. to learn some unbelievable water facts from the Ecology Action Center!
We will be learning and watching some demonstrations about how much drinkable water there is in the world, how we get water into our homes, and different types of pollution that can be a threat to our local water. We will be reading the picture book Riparia's River by Michael J. Caduto and discussing what a riparian zone is and how we can protect them to improve local water quality.
This program is free, open to the public, and requires no registration.

France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever—and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets.
Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world.
But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.
