Farmyard animals unite to improve their working conditions in Doreen Cronin’s children’s classic, “Click Clack Moo: Cows that Type.” All 16 pages of the book are now posted in Westerlo’s town park, encouraging kids to walk, read, and think — simultaneously.

The Westerlo Library Board of Trustees meets next on June 14 at 7 p.m. Join us via GoToMeeting. The link can be found on our website, westerlolibrary.org.

Book club

The June book club book is “Circe” by Madeline Miller. The book club will meet in person, outdoors on our patio, masked and socially distanced, weather permitting, on June 17 at 6 p.m.

Spice Take-and-Make

The spice for June is mint. Pick up a sample of mint and three recipes to try: Healthy Honey Lemonade with Mint, Watermelon Salad with Feta Cheese and Mint, and Strawberry Mint Sorbet.

Pandemic Globe Project

Calling all artists, writers, and poets!

The Pandemic Globe project is ongoing. The library has received some beautiful and interesting submissions. The plan is to keep taking submissions up until Labor Day. Then the globe will be assembled. If you would like to participate, stop by the library and pick up a plate (or more!) to create on.

StoryWalk

The StoryWalk is constructed in the Westerlo Town Park. Walk and read with your family following the 16 pages of “Click Clack Moo: Cows that Type” by Doreen Cronin.

STEAM Kits

We have free STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, math) take-and-make kits available at our library. June’s theme is “Diversions: Fun Things to Do.” New kits are available weekly.
