Share the Wonder of StoryTime with your Little One!

It's almost Halloween! That means a StoryTime with Pumpkins, Ghosts, and Bats... Oh My!

Halloween is around the corner and what preschooler wouldn't love a story about trying to catch a big giant pumpkin, or bats that sneak in the library (and play with the copy machine when it's time to read), or how about a book all in orange, black and white that tells about a resourceful heroine and spooky ghosts that's just perfect for these youngest of trick-or-treaters?

Jennifer Brown is our StoryTime storyteller and for the month of October, she is selecting fun books with a Halloween theme that will bring giggles and smiles to all. On the list so far are The Runaway Pumpkin by Kevin Lewis and S.D. Schindler, Bats at the Library by Brian Lies and Ghosts in the House by Kazuno Kohara.

Bring your preschooler to StoryTime once a week to share the fun of reading! After all, as they say in Bats in the Library—"It's hard to settle down and read when life flits by at dizzy speed!"

StoryTime is Every Tuesday from 11:45-12:15.

Clueless in the Kitchen
A cookbook for Teens

You're young, you're hungry, and you're clueless. The kitchen looms before you like something from 'The X-Files'. There's food in there, but then what? It'll have to be cooked...or at least peeled...probably both. It's enough to scare even the foolhardy, but then so is a diet of TV Dinners. And you can't afford to keep ordering pizza. Aargh!

Relax! You're not alone. Author Evelyn Raab (mum to two teenage sons) understands that the kitchen is alien territory, and she is going to teach you everything you need to know to produce something deliciously edible out of actual ingredients—in other words, cook—and live to tell the tale.

And there's more! Each recipe is coded with an icon symbolising vegetarian meals, cheap eats, couch potato, mum, or family food, food to impress, and snacks and munchies. Whether you're living on your own for the very first time or you're just on your own for dinner, Clueless in the Kitchen will be the first and—hopefully—only guide you will ever need.
