Cranbrook Public Library
‘Alone on the Wall’ is Alex Honnold’s life story – from dropping out of school in his teens to becoming the fastest free climber in the world.
In the first of a multi-authored series, Vicki Grant tells the story an orphan girl who discovers the mysterious circumstances surrounding her birth in ‘Small Bones.’
Preschool Story Time is this Wednesday at 11 a.m., 1:15 p.m., & 6:30 p.m. and Toddler Story Time is 10 and 11 a.m. Both will be all about Valentines!
