Webster County Library: ‘Little Cricket’s Song’
On a cool, rainy Wednesday morning, Feb. 28, Storytime was held at Webster County Public Library in Eupora for four bright-eyed pre-K children.
They sang “Stomp to the Beat,” “ There’s a Fly on My Toe” and “I’m Bringing Home a Baby Bumblebee,” and moved around the room like bugs.
Ms. Anita read “Little Cricket’s Song” by Joanne Barkan before the children created a ladybug out of a red paper plate and black construction paper.
Storytime is each Wednesday at 10:30 a.m.
Maben Library: ‘Green Eggs and Ham’
On March 1 at the Maben Public Library we celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday. Our story we read was “Green Eggs and Ham.”
This story has a lot of rhyming words in it and it tells the children that to know if you like a food, you first have to try it. They enjoyed the book as I was reading it fast and they thought that was funny.
We talked about pseudonyms that Dr. Seuss wrote under. His real name was Theodor Geisel, and his pseudonyms included Theo LeSieg. which is “Geisel” spelled backwards. He also wrote under Rosetta Stone and Theophrastus Seuss, and of course Dr. Seuss.
The children made Cat in the Hat hats and a green eggs and ham plate.
Last Friday we had Skyler Smith, Tyler Kay Bates, Will Anderson, Ila and Aubrey Miles, Reese Phelps, Clayvius Hilton and John Henry Krusee
