Remember
to sign-up to read About Schmidt written
by Louis Begley. We will be reading the
book in September and watching the movie, starring Jack Nicholson, in October. About
Schmidt is a story of a newly widowed retiree who is dealing with his
loneliness along with his botched relationship between himself and his
daughter. About Schmidt is a great
example of a producer taking parts and pieces of a great book and turning it
into a gem of an original film.
Let’s get geared up for autumn by
making fall candle holders out of mason jars. We provide
the materials you bring your creativity.
This is a fun way to learn some basic crafting skills, meet others who
love to craft, and take a free project home made by your own hands.
The
library will be showing Me Before You starring
Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin. Based on a bestselling novel by Jojo Moyes, Me Before You is a classic romance with
a twist. It’s a story of an unexpected relationship that blossoms between a
contented, small town Englishwoman and the wealthy, paralyzed Londoner who
hires her as his caretaker.
Thanks to all for a
great Summer Reading program!
