SURVEY
Jim Trojanowski, director of Northern Waters Library Services, has been asked by legislators at the past two Library Legislative Days if he has any access to this information. Link Wisconsin is currently conducting a survey in an attempt to gather some of this information and more. He encourages each of you to complete the survey (a link is listed below) for your home. The more responses we get the better. Please encourage friends to complete the survey and, for directors, ask patrons to complete it.

A snake plays a joke on Dragon and Dragon believes the apple in his hand is a friend, albeit a quiet one. What will he do when the apple gets eaten? Cynthia Rylant’s “Mr. Putter and Tabby Pour the Tea” finds an elderly gentleman, alone in his beautiful garden and wonderful stories to tell, but no one to tell them to. He makes a trip to a pet shop and finds only peppy kittens (something Mr. Putter has not been for quite some time). Mr. Putter meets his ideal furry friend at the local pet shelter and the old, yellow cat appreciates the quiet life, good stories and tea with cream as much as Mr. Putter. Some of our pre-schoolers will start school in the fall and “Everyone Goes to School” by Margaret Hillert was fun, timely and invited questions by the children Please join us every Wednesday from 10:30 to 11:00AM, followed by a snack.
