📚✨ Blackbird Families: Help Us Trim the Tree, Library Style! ✨📚

You are invited to mash up your artistic skills with a favorite book/character and create an ornament for the Library's Christmas tree. These ornaments will become part of the Library’s decorations for years to come... a growing celebration of the stories we love and the readers who cherish them.

The contest is open to all students, preschool through 12th grade. Ornaments can be made from any material, but should be 5" or smaller. Please turn in ornaments to Mrs. Lammers no later than Friday, December 5th. Staff will determine the winning ornaments from each grade, with prizes awarded before Christmas break.

We had an incredible morning yesterday with Author/Illustrator Jonathan Miller! Our youngest Blackbirds preschool through 6th graders thoroughly enjoyed an assembly where they learned about Mr. Miller’s creative process, artwork, making mistakes, and the importance of hard work. Sammy the Wonder Dachshund: Sammy Goes to Space was a huge hit! If you’re still interested in purchasing a copy of one of his books (whether personalized or not), please bring the order form and payment to the main office/library tomorrow (Friday, November 14). 📚
