This year's Summer Reading Program was tremendous success! We truly could not have produced a program of such magnitude without the support of local businesses and organizations, and we would like to offer them all our sincere thanks...

Who built a better Birdhouse? We had 17 very fine entries in our family contest this year, and it was a tough call to decide which ones would come out on top of the tree in the judging. Each and every house entered showed wonderful craftsmanship and imagination! It was a joy for everyone to be able to view them on display in the Children’s Library.
The Summer Reading Program is almost over, and we will wrap it all up with a family event on Friday, August 11 at 1:30pm. First, we will all gather at the Gazebo for some toe-tapping, dance-inducing music.
Calling all bakers (and shoppers)! Our annual Fun Faire is coming up on Thursday, August 3rd, and we are in need of goodies for the Carpenter's Cake Walk! This is an old-fashinoned game, similar to musical chairs...The kids walk around the circle, and when the music stops, the child standing on the lucky square wins a prize...they get to select a cake or a small batch of cookies or cupcakes to take home.
Are you ready for some summer magic? Be sure to join us on Wednesday, July 12 at 1:00pm when we present "Magic by George". George Saterial is an accomplished magician who has performed in many places, as well as on network television. He has some surprises up his sleeve that will amaze even the adults in the crowd. Space is limited, so please go to our website and register your children early: www.bedfordnhlibrary.org.
Would you like to see some live wild animals, and maybe even touch them? Wild Life Encounters will be with us on Thursday, July 6 with some of their most exotic rescue animals from this country and other parts of the world. Wildlife presentations are so popular, we will be offering two showings, so no one will be left out. The morning show starts at 11:00am...afternoon at 1:00pm. When you sign up on our website, be sure to note whether you are signing up for morning or afternoon.
