Colton library bugging out for October storytime

Storytime at the Colton Library will focus on the wonderful world of insects in October and November. Buzz on in to learn about all of those little creatures that bug us. Halloween and Thanksgiving will be celebrated as well with crafts, stories and snacks. Storytime is held at 10:30 every Monday for children ages 1-6.

Third Thursday, the after school program at the Colton Library, will be Oct. 21. Halloween will be the theme, and there will be lots of Halloween crafts, worksheets, books, and a scary snack. Children from kindergarten to 6th-grade are welcome to join in the fun at 3:15 p.m.

Audiobooks are a new addition at all Whitman County Libraries. Ask your local librarian how to sign up to download all of your favorite books to your iPod or MP3 player and listen on the go. The service is free of charge to anyone with a library card.
