And what a celebration it was!
Last Saturday, April 29, over 600 people joined us with our friends from the Durham County Library at Northgate Mall to celebrate El día de los niños/El día de los libros (Children’s Day/Book Day)! The three-hour celebration included a performance by Huepa, crafts with The Scrap Exchange, a magician, face painting, slime-making with Mad Science…and of course, lots and lots of books! Children selected 3,761 books to take home to start or add to their own home libraries. WOW!
Here are just a few of our favorite moments from the day. Many thanks to the Durham County Library for inviting us to partner with you in this fantastic event!
