At the Library
By Mike Selby
Cranbrook Public Library
Kevin Kwan’s humour and satirical trilogy is new this week, which began with ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ and ends with ‘Rich People Problems.’
J.R.R. Tolkien’s ‘The Story of Kullervo’ tells the story of a doomed young man who is sold into slavery and who swears revenge on the magician who killed his father.
Preschool Story Time is this Wednesday at 11 am, 1:15 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., and Toddler Story Time is 10 and 11 a.m. Both will be all about Fall. Baby Laptime is every Thursday at 11 a.m.
Our website has all kinds of great information and links.
The Cranbrook Public Library Endowment Fund gives people an opportunity to create a meaningful legacy, to build a strong foundation in the present for the future of the library. For more information about how you can contribute, please phone us at 250-426-4063 Ext: 1001, or visit this link.
Another great way to support our Endowment Fund is to purchase one of our Community Foundation of the Kootenay Rockies 2019 Wall Calendars. The full colour calendars feature brilliant local photography, and a chance to win prizes every single day of 2019. Calendars are $10.00 each, and make a great gift.
On display this month are the amazing fabric and felt creations of Barbara Guillen.
