Older children can come along on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoon and participate in Crafty Creations from 3.30pm to 4.30 pm. Spaces are limited for these sessions, so bookings are preferred and there is also a small charge of $3 per child.
New books are added to the shelves each week. Amongst the titles this week are David Lagercrantz's The Girl Who Lived Twice which is a continuation of Steig Larsson's Millennium series.
