Snake Day

Thanks to our FOL and corporate sponsors, I hosted a professional snake breeder today at the library where I work. My guest was a former teacher with a passion for reptiles and a way with kids. 75 children and adults sat fascinated for an hour, as they learned all kinds of facts about the slithering creatures. Lots of good questions were asked, and the juvenile non-fiction titles that I had placed on display for check-out after the program pretty much flew out of the library. Only one child had to be held by his teacher, looking away from the guests, out of fear. Otherwise, the program was a real s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-u-c-c-e-s-s!
