Holiday Stories and Songs
 
MusicalNotesOn Tuesday, December 13, at 3:30, Miss Sue and Miss Sarah will present a special Holiday Storytime.  We'll be listening to stories and singing songs from both the Christmas and Hanukkah traditions. We'll even finish up with a quick craft.  This is our way of saying, "Happy Holidays" to all of the patrons that help to make the Amherst Town Library such a fun place to be! Stories will be selected for children ages 3 and up. No registration required.
