Hello from the Cat in the Hat!

We can't wait for Dr. Seuss's birthday on March 2nd!  That's why we're hosting Dr. Seuss Bingo next Tuesday, March 1, 2022 at 6:30 p.m.  But it is NOT at the library!  Nope, we'll be at East 59 in Lee Branch.  Bring the whole family for a round of Seuss-inspired Bingo in anticipation of Read Across America Day.  Just make sure you let us know you are coming.  Sign up online or by phone (205-444-7830).

Still need to check our some Dr. Seuss books?  You're in luck!  We still have quite a few copies on our shelves.  Stop by the Kid Zone to get yours today.
