Gardening isn’t just for adults, you know. My mom always planted flowers around the house when I was younger and I always thought it was an activity that only she could do. I now realize that my mom probably would have let me do some planting of my own if I had asked. She probably would have even let me pick out my own seeds at the store to plant.
Spring is here and it is the perfect time to start planting, so if you have the desire, don’t be afraid to ask your parents. Flowers can be planted as seeds or you can just go to the store and pick some out to plant. Planting is easy and fun! If you decide to start planting, there are many resources here at the Young People's library to help you get started. Look at the non-fiction section under 635 for garden projects just for you!

Children’s Book Week is here! Celebrate children’s literacy May 13-19. We have some super awesome stories to help you party your way through a whole week of literacy!
"Established in 1919, Children's Book Week is the longest-running national literacy initiative in the country. Every year, commemorative events are held nationwide at schools, libraries, bookstores, homes -- wherever young readers and books connect!
Children's Book Week is administered by Every Child A Reader, a 501(c)(3) literacy organization dedicated to instilling a lifelong love of reading in children. The Children's Book Council, the national non-profit trade association for children's book publishers, is an anchor sponsor."
How will you celebrate this year? Check out the Children’s Book Week website for more information and ideas!
