Movie on the Green
The Marion County

teaming up with area
businesses to bring
a free movie to
green space beside
the library! This
month’s movie is
Disney’s Zootopia!
Grab your kids and head to this
FREE movie on July 15! The FRN
will be selling refreshments to raise
money for youth camps.
It’s outrageous how much
fun kids will have at the
hands on art exhibit that will
be visiting MCPLS in July
and August!
Artrageous is a fun and
engaging way to provide
kids a hands-on approach
to the arts.
This travelling
exhibit uses
works of art
from the
masters to
help children
discover the
elements of
design in the
visual arts.
Famous paintings like
Grant Wood’s “American
Gothic,” Georges Seurat’s
“A Sunday Afternoon on La
Grande Jatte,” and more
will teach kids about
shapes, lines, color, and
space in a fun, interactive
way.
This exhibit is free and
open to the public!

special event planned: on July

“Don’t Wii Have Fun?” for
patrons ages 11-17.
Each year the Friends of the Fairview
Public Library sponsors a coloring and
poster contest for Fairview Elementary
and Fairview Middle students. This year’s
theme is “Legacy of Patriots.”
Come join her for refreshments
and gaming fun as she provides
a variety of Wii games that will
get your heart pumping and your
pulse racing. Registration is
required so be
sure to contact
the library to sign
up.
Speaking of Books Club
Speaking of Books will meet July 26
at 4 pm to discuss A Land More Kind
Than Home by Wiley Cash.
For a curious boy like
Jess Hall, growing up
in Marshall means
trouble when you get
caught spying on
grown-ups.
Adventurous and
precocious, Jess is
protective of his older
brother, Christopher,
a mute whom everyone calls Stump.
Though their mother has warned them
not to snoop, Stump can't help sneaking
a look at something he's not supposed
to—an act that will have repercussions.
It's a wrenching event that thrusts Jess
into an adulthood for which he's not
prepared. He now knows that a new
understanding can bring not only danger
and evil—but also the possibility of
freedom and deliverance.
Winners in each grade receive a prize;
the winning coloring contest entries from
Grades PreK – 3 are displayed at the
library while the winning poster entries
from Grades 4 - 8 are displayed at the
post office.
A Land More Kind Than Home is a
haunting tale of courage in the face of
cruelty and the power of love to
overcome the darkness that lives in us
all. (From the publisher.)
You can stop by from now through the
July 4 holiday and appreciate the
creativity of some young artists.
The Friends are sponsoring their summer book sale from July 11-30. Be sure
you don’t miss out on a lot of great deals
on books, audiobooks, CDs, and DVDs!
Our Friends organization is always
looking for new volunteers so why not
sign up and become a member? Contact
the library for more information.

July 21 @ 1:30. This month’s title:
Leaving Time by Jodi Picoult.
For fans of Sarah Dessen and
John Green, this
is a breathtaking
debut about a
couple who fall
in love...twice.
Before: Reena
Montero has
loved Sawyer
LeGrande for as
long as she can remember. But
he's never noticed that Reena
even exists...until one day,
impossibly, he does. Reena and
Sawyer fall in messy, complicated
love. Then Sawyer disappears
without a word, leaving a
devastated—and pregnant—
Reena behind.
For more than a decade, Jenna Metcalf has
never stopped
thinking about her
mother, Alice, who
mysteriously
disappeared in the
wake of a tragic
accident. Refusing to
believe she was
abandoned, Jenna
searches for her mother regularly online
and pores over the pages of Alice’s old
journals.
After: Almost three years have
passed, and there's a new love in
Reena's life: her daughter.
Reena's gotten used to life without
Sawyer, but just as suddenly as
he disappeared, he turns up
again. Reena wants nothing to do
with him, though she'd be lying if
she said his being back wasn't
stirring something in her.
Desperate to find the truth, Jenna enlists
two unlikely allies in her quest: Serenity
Jones, a psychic who rose to fame
finding missing persons, only to later
doubt her gifts, and Virgil Stanhope, the
jaded private detective who’d originally
investigated Alice’s case along with the
strange, possibly linked death of one of
her colleagues. As the three work
together to uncover what happened to
Alice, they realize that in asking hard
questions, they’ll have to face even
harder answers.
WV Choice Training
After everything that's happened,
can Reena really let herself love
Sawyer LeGrande again? West Virginia's Choice is holding
training classes at the Mannington
Public Library consisting of First
Aid and CPR in order to be hired
as Personal Attendant's (Direct
Care Worker's) for clients who
need in-home assistance.
Training classes are scheduled
once a month for the rest of the
year. Training for this month is
scheduled for July 13, 14, 22, and
29 from 9 am -5 pm To sign up for
training, call West Virginia's
Choice at 304.291.3345 ext. 235
or ask for Cindy.

Hello All!
It's that time of year again! SUMMER READING! It has begun and
we have a fun filled summer ahead. So many things to do for all
ages! I've got my running shoes out and ready to go for “Ready, Set,
READ!”
Summer reading is a delightful way to encourage children to stay
active with their reading over the summer. By participating in the
program, they can earn prizes, learn new things and continue their
love of reading.
Fridays are my favorite! Every Friday is a special event. I'm so
excited to see what special family events take place this year.
The library is a wonderful way to spend your summer days! Be sure
to check out all the wonderful things going on in the library.
