The Tiger in the Smoke by Margery Allingham
This story time program on Tuesday mornings is geared to 2-year-old children. The program will last approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Children will receive a coloring sheet after the program, which they may color at the library. This week we will be reading about spiders! Older and younger children are welcome to attend.
Make a house that actually has a spout for the spider to slide up and down.
Islamic Archaeology
Dr. Donald Whitcomb of the Oriental Institute at the University of Chicago will discuss Islamic Archaeology, including key sites in Iraq, Syria, Egypt, and Jerusalem. In addition, he has just returned from a dig on the site of Mafjar, near Jericho, and will discuss his findings! (Information on Dr. Whitcomb’s dig in Mafjar can also be found at the Jericho Mafjar Project website.)
