As one of
four children, April first was always a big day in our household. My brothers and sister and I plotted and
planned the many wonderful, creative and surprising tricks we could play on
each other, our classmates and friends. We
tied siblings shoelaces together, hid socks and said things like, “Do you know
your shirt is torn?” and such stuff throughout the day. It didn’t seem to matter if we were
“successful” – it was fun regardless.
Now that my
childhood years are long gone, I find myself on the receiving end of little ones’
imaginations. The tables have indeed
turned. It’s time now for me to play the
role of being “tricked” and watching little one’s faces light up, followed by
giggles of “gotcha!”
No matter
your age, the library has some no-foolin’ good stuff for you! Where else can a person walk in, pay no fees
and have access to over 70,000 items?
From DVDs to books to music, magazines, literacy boxes, book kits and
more – we have it for you! That’s the
beauty and service of YOUR public library – No Foolin’! Come visit us today!
