PJ's in the Library

My name is Phooka and I'm a stuffed rabbit. Could you tell? I think it's my ears that always gives it away. Ever since my best friend started working at the library, I've been lonely.

She promised me that I could come to the library, but so far I haven't had a chance to go. But I'm really excited because she's finally bringing me and I know I'm going to make a lot of new friends. Maybe you can come, too?

If you’ve got PJ’s (everyone has those, right?) and a special stuffed animal friend, then join us for an evening at the library. We’ll tell stories, have music and enjoy a treat or two. Some come, get cozy and enjoy a book or two -- it won’t be as fun without you!

Kick off the summer with a fun-filled night at the library on Tuesday, May 20 at 6 p.m. For all ages.

Did you know that books make great buddies, too?

My friend loved these books when she was growing up. Maybe you'll enjoy them as well?

• Eloise: A Book for Precocious Grownups by Kay Thompson
• Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak

Or maybe you could even listen to a classic story with a buddy of your own; this is a great video for everyone to listen to:

• Goodnight Moon and Other Sleepytime Tales, produced & directed by Amy Schatz

But of course this is my favorite book of all time; give it a try!

• The Velveteen Rabbit or How Toys Become Real by Margery Williams Bianco
