Lubbock Public Library 50th Anniversary
 
Yesterday was LPL's 50th Birthday, and lots of programs were held at the 4 branches. Myra, Jake and I had the Family Story Hour program at the Godeke Branch Library and Rene, librarian from that branch, told us wonderful stories for half and hour. The stories that she told us included The Icky Sticky Frog by Dawn Bentley & Salina Yoon, Clay Boy by Mirra Ginsburg and Abiyoyo by Pete Seeger. Rene was so lively and funny while telling the stories that she inspired me! She used facial expressions, made animal sounds, hopped like a frog and dance with the song to draw our attention to her. I've learnt and enjoyed so much just by observing her, and I regret not having a video camcorder to record her storytelling!
