At the Library for April 28 2015
Updated 2015/04/29
John Brockman’s ‘This Idea Must Die’ is a collection of essays by top scientists all addressing the question “which scientific idea needs to retire.” String theory, laboratory mice, and nature vs. nurture are all the chopping block.
Younger readers should enjoy Scott Nickel’s ‘Incredible Rockhead’ books, a series of graphic novels about a young boy with superpowers; he can stop an array of evil villains, but can never get the cute girl in school to talk to him.
Preschool Story Time is this Wednesday at 11:00 am, 1:15 pm, & 6:30 pm, and Toddler Story Time is 10:00 and 11:00 am. Both will be all about Owls!
There is much more than this happening at the Library. Please check out our Facebook pages for more information and updates.
On display this month is the amazing egg collection of Kathy Simon.
