New Programs for 2007-2008

The Reading Ranger™ (Preschool-Grade 3)

Lasso some learning with the Reading Ranger. Once a hero of the west, this book-loving cowpoke travels the country to spread the news that reading books or hearing stories makes you smarter (just look at your average librarian).

This interactive program includes stories, songs and western fun. "Git along little doggies!"

The Nature Ranger™ (Preschool-Grade 3)

Explore the natural world with stories, songs and animal props in this interactive "virtual fieldtrip" program.

Participants will hear animal folktales and real life stories about the animals that live in the woods and fields right near their houses. They'll even learn how to listen like a deer and howl like a wolf. "Ahhooooo!"
