Together, we’ll read Snow Friends by M. Christina Butler. In this story, Little Bear is delighted to discover the fresh layer of snow outside his cave. But he quickly realizes snow isn’t much fun when he’s playing by himself. So, he decides to build a friend out of snow.

As he begins to work, Otter and Rabbit appear, ready to help him. Together the three friends build a huge snowman, their work enhanced by the magical, sparkling finish throughout the book. When he finishes his creation, Little Bear realizes that while he has found friends, the snowman is alone. The three animals work together to build a friend for “the bestest snowman in the world” so that he is no longer lonely!

We’ll walk through the story and enjoy activities that go along with the book. The story display will be up from February 5-11, so walk through on your own time if you can’t make our February 5 event!

After we read together, stop by the pond hockey tournament happening on Woods Creek Lake!

Breathe in the spirit of competition and root for your neighbors and fellow community members as they reach for the top spot! Learn more at: https://bit.ly/3fbc0vI
