Storytime with Smokey the Bear!

There was a special visitor for preschool storytime yesterday:

Smokey the Bear!

The kids loved seeing Smokey, and many brought their favorite teddy bears for a special contest

Smokey was a great guest, and everyone had a lot of fun!

What a fun summer storytime! You never know what's going to happen next at the Library, or who might come visit. Don't forget to check our schedule, Summer Reading is almost over and you don't want to miss anything!
