Take a break from all the eating and shopping to grab a few books and movies for the long weekend.
Title: Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever
Author: Jeff Kinney
Summary: Middle-schooler Greg Heffley is the prime suspect when it is discovered that school property has been damaged, but when a surprise blizzard hits and school is closed, Greg is stuck indoors with his family, unable to prove his innocence.
Kyle Says: I liked it when Greg was scared of the Santa's Scout. Also, it was funny when Greg was running from the police, and he avoided them as much as he could, and he mostly embarrassed himself.
All of the entries for the Habitat for Humanity Tree Decorating Contest have finally arrived at the library. Make sure to stop in to look at all of the different creative themes people have come up with.
Voting for the Humanity Award will be open until Saturday, December 3 so vote early and often for your favorite.
Bidding in the silent auction for the trees will be open until noon on December 10. If there is a tree you REALLY want, make sure you are here in person on that day because no phone bids will be accepted.
On Saturday, December 3 from 10:00 am-11:00 am, Santa will be visiting the Solon Public Library. Come on over and get a chance to talk with Santa about what's on your list for this year. We will also have a holiday craft that you can make and take home with you.
Santa will be at the library during our annual Friends of the Library Holiday Sale, so you can do some shopping after you visit with Santa.
All ages are welcome to attend and no registration is required.
The Friends of the Solon Public Library is once again taking orders for their annual holiday sale items. Order forms for poinsettias and gift jar mixes are available at the library or from our website.
The poinsettias are from Joyce's Greenhouse and are available in regular and pixie size and in a variety of colors.
Jar mixes this year include many favorites from previous years including the Friendship Soup Mix, Yummiest Bar Mix Ever, and a Mocha Coffee Mix.
Orders for these items must be turned in by 8:00 pm on Monday, November 21. There will only be a very small number of cash and carry items available at the Holiday sale, so make sure to order now.
