We are entering week 3 of Unearth a Story Summer Reading!
The last day to register for summer reading is this Friday, June 19th. If you haven't registered or still need to get your logs, make time to stop in.

PV Students please be aware that the initial reading goals must be initialed by library staff to count as completed. If your student wants to participate in the field trips or the $200 drawing at the high school, they must get into the library.

Our friends from Pawsitive Therapy Dogs joined us for the popular PAWS to Read event on Friday morning. The young readers picked a book and shared the story out loud with the dogs and handlers. The dogs will be back on Friday, June 24th at 10:30 AM. 📚❤️🐾

It's a beautiful day to enjoy the Andover Public Library's Storybook Trail! The Trail is located beside the building on our greenspace. Walk the Trail and take the Summer Storybook Trail Adventure to enter to win an adorable patriotic prize basket.
Family-friendly • Pets welcome (clean up after them) • Pack lunch or a snack to enjoy at a table in the shade or on the library patio under an umbrella
The Trail is open 24/7 during daylight hours. Everyone is welcome!

Teen "This was a really cool craft! Thanks for having it!"
Thursday, we joined forces with the Steeple Stitchers quilting group to teach 19 teenagers how to cut out a pattern on fabric, pin it together, use a sewing machine for the first time ever, stuff their creation, and then hand stitch it closed.
The results were the cutest Dino Nugget pillows EVER!
Thank you Steeple Stitchers for your time and patience. ❤️
Oh, and of course we air fried dino chicken nuggets for a snack. 😀

This event is supported by the State Library of Ohio with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

Kids Create! is on Tuesdays at 11 & 1. This week's creation was meteors. We think their artwork is out of this world.
Craft events require registration.

The pups are back! Come on in from 10:30 -12 to read to the Pawsitive Therapy Dogs. All summer readers will get a prize ticket and ages 6 - 11 will earn a Dino Dollar when they read to a dog.
Cute dog Keychain craft, too !

This Friday's Movie Matinee is the 1974 film "The Land That Time Forgot" rated PG. Forget CGI. This movie was shot old school and will amaze you with how horrible the visual effects are. Join us for a throwback flick that we'll likely find more humorous than the director could have imagined.
12:30 PM • Popcorn provided • Bring snacks & beverages.

We take library crafts on the go during summer reading. Thank you to the New Lyme Township Trustees for letting us use their Hall for this morning's event.
The paper lanterns turned out amazing!
Join us next week at Wayne township hall. We're making bubble painted hydrangeas. ❤️
