You may be as surprised as us to learn about the sounds these small creatures make. We also explore the history of the telephone. Spoiler: it’s older than you think!  

We often get questions about the inner workings of the library. Join us for a special fact of the day from a wonderful librarian who buys all the items that make our library awesome. We have a new road trip adventure book recommendation for you this week as well.
