MPL Summer Reading
Pirate D, Callie, and Dog Parrot
Marathon Public Library had it’s last summer reading class on July 11, 2007. The children can continue to read until July 31, 2007 for their points. On August 11, 2007, at 11AM, we will have our award program and party. We want to invite all the parents to come and join the fun. In our last program we colored pictures, had a visit from Pirate D(Dimitri Garcia), Callie Griffis, and Dog Parrot(Darby). Pirate D read “Why pirates don’t change diapers” by Melinda Long and the little pirates colored. We decorated small wood pirate chest and filled them with treadures for all. At the end of the program Captain Steve and Pirate D led us all in a Yo, Ho, Ho pirate song. Hope all you fantastic little pirates return for that special buried treasure for the winner. Come and join the fun at the Marathon Public Library. “Everyone walks the plank to winning.”
