We had such a fun Dot Day Storytime here at Scoville yesterday! We were the second stop on our community's "Dot Day Library Trail," after our friends at David M Hunt last Tuesday!

It's not too late to pick up a map at one of the participating libraries, who will all take a turn sharing a special Peter H. Reynolds book soon:

-Hotchkiss Library of Sharon
-The Norfolk Library
-NorthEast-Millerton Library

Next up, join the wonderful Miss Renee at Hotchkiss Library in Sharon on Saturday Sept 5th!

And thanks again to our friends Project SAGE for providing each library a copy of the book we will be reading! We were able to raffle off the copy you gave us to a lucky winner, Ben. :)

Le Petit Ranch has done it again! They came to the library with their team of adorable sheep, creating a beautiful environment for folks of all ages to pet and feed the animals as well as explore wool through weaving and felting activities.

What a beautiful day!

Thank you for an amazing day Danny Tieger and Debbie Labbe !

Today, we had so much fun at a program called “Danny Sings About a Real Live Llama At The Library.”

One patron suggested we do “Danny Sssssings About Sssssnakes at the Library” next. 🐍 Would your family join us?

Leave us a comment if you can come up with another animal-themed Danny Sings Concert. Silly answers are acceptable, as are earnest requests. 😂

Excuse us while we go looking for a snake that visits libraries! 👀

We’re on rain or shine! Registration on our website is appreciated.

Come hang out with us before Region 1 goes back to school on Tuesday 8/25!

That’s a wrap! The Berkshire Resilience Brass Band put on a wildly fun concert at the library yesterday to celebrate the end of summer reading; winners of prizes were announced and contacted.

The band is so great at encouraging audience members to become part of the show, and they always bring a fascinating array of percussion instruments for us to try out.

Even Buttons the Bear found himself playing along to the music, thanks to a kindhearted little one who made sure he was given instruments too. 🥹

Thank you to all of our families, community members, and library staff who helped make a special summer reading program this year. 🌱

We can hardly believe it’s August! ☀️

Here’s a little throwback to the very beginning of summer at the library, where we were lucky enough to do a horse book camp with our friends at Le Petit Ranch

So grateful to Joe James for capturing some of these lovely moments and creating this slideshow for us to share! Thanks Joe!

We have more fun and educational collaborations coming up with the ranch, including an all ages program, Meet Sheep and Learn About Wool program on August 26th. Although the program is currently full, don’t hesitate to visit our registration page on the website and jump on the waitlist! 🐑
