Teens Distribute Trees for Arbor Day

Mary Phillips — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 14:37:13 +0000

This past week encompassed Earth Day and National Arbor Day. In celebration of these days, teens from the Library Youth Board distributed spruce trees to library residents. In the past several years, hurricanes and snow storms have damaged and destroyed large numbers of trees in our area. Spruces are not usually eaten by deer and provide a lovely green color throughout the winter. The above volunteers are Erin O'Shea, Brendan O'Shea, Ronith Reddy, Nithin Binu and Nevin Binu.

Book Review of Speechless by Hannah Harrington, review done by Marie Yatsyk

Everyone knows that Chelsea Knot can’t keep a secret.”

After spilling a secret that almost gets someone killed, Chelsea Knot decides that she won’t speak to anyone - not her teachers, her parents, or even herself - until she learns how to “keep her mouth shut” and stop hurting others. But there’s a difference between blurting out and speaking up, and it takes some unexpected friends that are willing to give Chelsea a second chance for her to learn that difference - and to learn to forgive herself.
