Keeping Up With Kids

In case you missed earlier notices about it, please take a look at the resources created for the Great Lakes, Great Read project, led by the Wisconsin Water Library at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.  Many of you have interacted with the wonderful librarian there, Anne Moser.  Check out the latest project, which includes fun programming ideas for kids and adults, tie-ins to the Wisconsin Science Festival, and more!  Here is what’s new with this project:

The Great Lakes, Great Read website is now a robust, interactive resource.

Meet the authors webinar.
Both authors will be featured in a free webinar series beginning in late September. All events will start at 6:00 p.m. central and are open to the public. Mark your calendar for September 25, October 2 and October 9. Don’t forget to register.

The authors will be traveling to the Green Bay area in November so please be sure to follow us on Facebook.
