Shelton Timberland Library Monday July 28, 2008 6:30 PM
With the silly but science-based antics of Mad Science, Betty Beetle and friends from the audience present a day in the lives of insects: how they get around, the different ways they see things and the ways they communicate and defend themselves.
 
Poetry Encounter
Shelton Timberland Library Wednesday July 30, 2008 6:30 PM
Poets and poetry enthusiasts share their love of poetry through readings and discussion. Bring your own poems, your favorite poems, an open mind, and your passion for poetry. This program will be held in the meeting room. Refreshments provided by the Friends of the Shelton Timberland Library.
 
Bayou Bugs
Shelton Timberland Library Thursday July 31, 2008 2:00 PM
In Last Leaf Productions' play, set in the South, three bugs and a pollywog learn about change and how to be ready for it. Ant prepares for winter, Caterpillar gets ready for metamorphosis, Pollywog is turning into a frog, and frivolous Grasshopper refuses to look ahead at all. The Friends of the William G. Reed Library sponsor this program.
