Vote for your favorite children's book during Children's Book Week, April 29-May 5, at the Thomas Ford Memorial Library: Browse through a captivating assortment of picture books with your little ones, cast your ballot, and check back to see the results! While you're there, take a look at all the renovations in Youth Services. One very popular change is that Easy books are now front-facing, making browsing even simpler and more fun.
