Summer reading is underway! I hope you stopped by the library this week and attended a program, made sure everyone in the family had a reading log and borrowed enough books for everyone to get started reading this summer. If not, there is still plenty of time to participate this summer.

I certainly hope April showers bring May flowers. I am looking forward to bright colors and lots of green. While I wait to grow things outside I am enjoying “Decorating with Plants” by Baylor Chapman for wonderful ideas about ‘what to choose, ways to style, and how to make them thrive.’ I am looking at doing more of my growing in pots, primarily to be able to bring things inside at night and protect them from deer and rabbits. “Grow Plants in Pots” by Martyn Cox provides lots of suggestions and tips for growing fruits, vegetables and herbs in containers. I am also looking at our selection of books on pruning and getting ready to prune my apple trees. I really like “The Ultimate Practical Guide to pruning and training” by Richard Bird.
@YOUR LIBRARY April showers bring May flowers. Does that include snow showers? I am ready for green and spring and growing things.
@YOUR LIBRARY Happy April! It has been a while since we talked about new junior room books. Help your child finish the school year strongly and prepare them for summer reading.
