The Library is a place for discovery and imagination, and this building program offers children the experience of making their imaginative musings come to life.\u00a0 By introducing them to these hands-on experiences with science and math, children not only learn how to build different structures but also how to make them stronger and taller<\/p>\n

Cazenovia Readers Book Club: Tuesday, Jan. 12\u00a0at 6:30 pm in the Story Garden.\u00a0 Books are available at the circulation desk.<\/p>\n

The January selection\u00a0The Invention of Wings\u00a0is\u00a0Sue Monk Kidd\u00a0writing at the height of her narrative and imaginative gifts.\u00a0 Here, Hetty \u201cHandful\u201d Grimke, an urban slave in early nineteenth century Charleston, yearns for life beyond the suffocating walls that enclose her within the wealthy Grimke household. The Grimke\u2019s daughter, Sarah, has known from an early age she is meant to do something large in the world, but she is hemmed in by the limits imposed on women.\u00a0Inspired by the historical figure of Sarah Grimke, Kidd goes beyond the record to flesh out the rich interior lives of all of her characters, both real and invented.\u00a0\u00a0This exquisitely written novel looks with unswerving eyes at a devastating wound in American history, through women whose struggles for liberation, empowerment, and expression will leave no reader unmoved.

Open Afternoon Book Club: Wednesday, Jan. 20\u00a0at 1:00 pm in the Story Garden.\u00a0 Books are available at the circulation desk. \u00a0 \u00a0 For January this group has selected Toni Morrison\u2019s\u00a0God Help the Child,\u00a0a tale about the way the sufferings of childhood can shape, and misshape, the life of the adult. \u00a0At the center of the novel is a young woman who calls herself Bride.\u00a0 Her stunning blue-black skin is only one element of her beauty.\u00a0 There is also her boldness, confidence, and success in life.\u00a0 Even so, Bride is denied the simplest forms of love from her light-skinned mother Sweetness, who takes a lifetime to come to understand that \u201cwhat you do to children matters. And they might never forget.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0(Amazon.com)<\/p>\n
