As a story in Washingtonpost.com (1/25/05) put it “girls read; boys don’t.” Is there anything a concerned adult can do? Ann Cannon’s experiences as a teacher of children’s literature, a bookseller, a writer, and a mother of five sons have convinced her that the answer is yes. She’ll discuss strategies and specific titles that have been successful with real live boys.<br /><br />This special program is especially for parents and is presented at the Whitmore Library, 2197 Fort Union Blvd., Salt Lake City, 84121-3139. Adults only. This speaker is provided by the Utah Humanities Council.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6749655724720944334.post-12870389521365286952010-11-18T14:33:00.000-07:002010-11-18T14:33:00.302-07:00Movie Night<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PTvXYSH8rkY/TORLimatWKI/AAAAAAAAANE/0SUPlFWp-OY/s1600/Movie%2BCamera.bmp"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 115px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 109px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540636499372759202" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PTvXYSH8rkY/TORLimatWKI/AAAAAAAAANE/0SUPlFWp-OY/s200/Movie%2BCamera.bmp" /></a><br /><div>The Library is hosting another Movie Night on Monday, November 22 at 7:00pm. </div><br /><div>Come join us for a showing of Squanto: A Warrior's Tale (rated PG), and at the end we will have a drawing for a DVD of The Cat in the Hat (you have to be there to win)!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6749655724720944334.post-90631268818703778482010-11-17T14:16:00.005-07:002010-11-17T14:29:30.881-07:00The KUED Reading Marathon has begun!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_PTvXYSH8rkY/TORI8Ok4yZI/AAAAAAAAAM8/CFJBcfMJWf0/s1600/2009Kued.gif"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 115px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540633641114716562" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_PTvXYSH8rkY/TORI8Ok4yZI/AAAAAAAAAM8/CFJBcfMJWf0/s200/2009Kued.gif" /></a><br /><div>Get started recording your reading minutes for the KUED reading marathon. </div><br /><div>Come into the Library to pick up a reading record, or go directly to <a href="http://www.kued.org/reading">www.Kued.org/reading</a> to record your time on their electronic log (all times will need to be entered electronically in order to get the ticket to the Super Readers party, but we do have a paper copy to help you keep track).</div><br /><div>When you have reached your goal, print out your ticket to the party, and then bring it in to Bingham Creek Library for a free book!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6749655724720944334.post-80882196324673412242010-11-11T14:10:00.002-07:002010-11-11T14:10:00.706-07:00Thanksgiving Storytime<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PTvXYSH8rkY/TMx8u-ewN4I/AAAAAAAAAMw/rZqdzgC6BsA/s1600/thanksgiving.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 136px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533935188619310978" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PTvXYSH8rkY/TMx8u-ewN4I/AAAAAAAAAMw/rZqdzgC6BsA/s200/thanksgiving.jpg" /></a> We will be having a special Thanksgiving storytime on November 17 and 18 at 10:15 and 11:15.
