Tell a Yarn...

What could be better than working on your favorite knitting or crocheting project while someone reads out loud to you?
Join our yarn circle/adult story time for your dose of productive relaxation! On Wednesday, October 8, we'll be starting Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson — a National Book Award finalist that follows 13-year-old Isabel, an enslaved girl in Revolutionary War-era New York who fights for her freedom while navigating divided loyalties and betrayal.
For this book, the Tell a Yarn group has joined a nationwide celebration of our Right To Read. Every Wednesday, we will immerse ourselves in the world of banned books and celebrate the freedom to read. For more information on Banned Books Week, check out our Freedom to Read resource guide.
Bring your yarn projects to the Library on Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 to 3 pm in the Sheffer Gallery. We'll read aloud while you work on your project. Or you can just listen — no working necessary! No registration is required, and no yarn instruction provided.
