Dig into Reading!

Thanks to everyone who came to the Grand Trees “Portrait of a Worm” activity at Goldston Library.  Plenty of squealing and giggling  accompanied our learning about earthworms and then bestowing our  rescue worms upon the root system of a venerable cedar tree.

The last stop in our summer reading tour will be a double-header at Wren Memorial Library in Siler City,  Wednesday, July 24.  A short  version of the program will be presented at 10:30 AM.  The full  version of the program will begin at 11:00 AM.

We’ll read stories, play games, draw portraits of worms from live models, and get down and dirty for a short trip outside to release our worms into the wild.  All while learning about how worms are a tree’s best friend.  Urban trees, especially, need all the help they can get!

Hope to see you there,
