The library is holding an event to celebrate your pets - and literature - by creating a "Pet Poses" online album from photos YOU send us of a pet, posing in some way that relates to a book character, title, setting, or event.
Email or drop off your photo(s) by August 16. We will create an album online, and post them in other ways. (send to: Info@warner.lib.nh.us )
ALL participants will receive a "goodie bag" of items from local businesses for you and your pet.
Please include your pet's name, age, breed, and what character or story element inspired the photo.
(By sending, you give permission to use publicly.)

"This isn't a mushroom, just one of nature's weird wonders that is actually in the blueberry family. Indian Pipe doesn't have any chlorophyll (what makes plants green) and doesn't use photosynthesis. This means it can thrive in the darkest of forests because it is parasitic on photosynthetic trees, using their energy for survival. Have you spotted Indian Pipe?"

This August 2021 marks the 35th anniversary of Art Spiegelman's Maus, which is as much a publishing industry landmark as it is a reminder of the evils of Nazism.
Maus helped transform mainstream opinion of the graphic novel from "mere" comic book to serious work of art. In the book, Spiegelman uses anthropomorphic animals--Jews as mice, Germans as cats and Poles as pigs--to tell the story of his parents during the Holocaust.
In 1992, Maus became the first graphic novel to win a Pulitzer Prize.

One of these girls is destined to become the president of the United States. The mystery, of course, is which girl gets the gig.
