Our Mother's Day Story time

Dear Rumney Readers,

We had a great time on Saturday, May 10 at our Mother's Day Story time! We were welcomed into the Story Space with the "Story Space Song", and then sang "What's Inside the Story Box?" before opening the box to see what was inside. I was so happy to find out what was inside the Story Box; The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown. This is one of my favorite books about how great moms are. I really liked listening to that story!

We saw something new at the library-- a puppet show!Puppets Manny the Monkey and Paulina the Pig showed us how they celebrate Mother's Day. Manny told us some Mother's Day jokes, and Paulina read us a poem dedicated to her mother, Priscilla the Pig. Manny and Paulina told me they will be visiting the library again, so be sure to see them at the next story time!

We ended our story time with an outdoor flower ceremony. We put colorful carnations in a cup filled with soil, and gave them to our moms. I gave my mom, Byroness G. Bear, a beautiful red carnation. She was so happy!

Thanks to everyone who came to the story time. I had a great time and I hope you did too!

I'll see you at the library really soon. Happy Reading!

Love,
Byron G. Bear
