TUESDAY, MARCH 5th at 7pm: CELEBRATING SEUSS!

 

Stories return to the Library in March!

120 years ago this month, and unique creative mind was born. While the world has changed since the first days that the man we knew as Dr. Seuss first penned his whimsical tales, much of his canon of work is part of many of our young lives. Somehow the world would not quite be as bright a place if a mysterious cat might not knock on our doors unexpectedly, bringing excitement and danger to a boring day with the assurance, "Your Mother will not mind if you do!"
