My visit to Northfield, Minnesota.

Hello! from Northfield, Minnesota! It's a special year here, it's the library's centennial- the library is as old as I am! I spent my time assisting the library's volunteer Library Pages at the summer reading programs. I need a rest after all the things I did. I helped them at morning storytimes where the kids made turtle hats in honor of me! I also helped at the afternoon "Make a Splash Discovery Times" where we had a "freezie walk"and I made glurp with some nice girls. Then I watched the Pages make geysers out of pop! I got to serve pizza at the reader's reward lunch. I danced the conga at the evening music performance Books & Stars with a cool Brazilian band! I drank a cold Hawiian shaved ice too fast and had to rest on the ambulance bed.

I got to walk around in historical downtown Northfield with my new friends. I saw the bank Frank and Jesse James tried to rob and much more. I even helped a girl get her first library card! I ended my visit with a special "Library Splash" at the pool. I enjoyed trying the climbing wall and swimming. I even won the biggest splash contest!

The children's librarian Kathy was fun to work with and the kids were really great. I hope you enjoy seeing the pictures of my adventures. I had a super time in Northfield!
