January/February 2007
Everyone’s Reading 2007
The popular community reading program is back with a selection
featuring local history and drama. This year’s title is Arc of Justice:
A Saga of Race, Civil Rights, and Murder in the Jazz Age by Kevin Boyle.
This 2004 National Book Award winner tells the story of the
sensational 1925 murder trial of Ossian Sweet, doctor and grandson
of a slave, who moved into a white working-class neighborhood in
Detroit. Famed defense attorney Clarence Darrow represented Sweet
in the trial that received national attention.
Arc of Justice recounts the trial, explores the politics of racism and the
growing pains of a young Civil Rights movement, and poignantly captures an epic tale of a
man trapped by the battles of his era’s changing times. The story may be 80 years old, but
it has important lessons for today.
The program kicks off January 15, Martin Luther King Day, with a book discussion planned
for March 8 and a visit from author Kevin Boyle in April. Also appearing at the library is
the Sweet Photo Exhibit, a historical photo documentary display containing images from
the era. The display, courtesy of the University of Detroit-Mercy, will be at the Canton
Public Library April 7-15.

New Year’s Library Policy Review
The New Year is a natural time to take stock and review. This year, we’d like to remind
patrons of some policies and practices to insure everyone has a pleasant experience when
using the library.
• Please switch your phone to vibrate when you enter the library. If you need to use your
phone, step into the lobby.
• Parents, encourage your children to use “inside voices” and walk, not run, in the library.
• For their own safety, children under 7 should be closely supervised and never left
unattended in any part of the library. Make sure older children are picked up before
closing time.
• Please lower your voice so as not to disturb others.
• Keep an eye on backpacks, laptops, handbags and portable listening devices.
Our library is very busy with over 77,000 cardholders and more than 1.5 million items
circulating each year. By observing library policies, we can make sure the library remains a
welcoming place for all Canton residents.

Managing Teen Stress
How can a teen manage the stress that comes from daily teen life? Here are a few
resources from the Canton Public Library to get you on the right track.
Coping With Stress by Gwen K. Packard
Coping With Stress in College by Mark Rowh
A Tasteberry Teen’s Guide to Managing the Stress and Pressures of Life:
With Contributions From Teens for Teens by Bettie B. Youngs
Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul series published
by Health Communications.
Get Ready, Get Set, Dance!
Dance Dance Revolution, the popular
dance video game, is coming to the
Canton Public Library, along with a
few other video games. Keep an eye
on Teen Place for upcoming events,
tournaments and fun with these new
library resources.
www.cantonpl.org
Combine school, sports, activities, clubs, volunteer work, homework, ACT/SATs and
jobs and you get one over-scheduled, stressed-out teen. Add in normal teen growth
and development, a lack of sleep and proper nutrition and it can be a recipe for
disaster.
Your Space
Tweens, the library is creating a special space just for you. Take a walk through
the Children’s Department to the new Tween space (formerly the Blue Room).
We’re looking for a name for our new space so watch for details on how to submit
your suggestion. When complete, the Tween space will have its own department desk,
five public use computers, new seating and a totally new look.
Finding Fitness Resources for Kids
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity is one of
the biggest public-health threats. Around 20 percent of children are overweight or
obese, leading to health risks like diabetes and heart disease, and emotional issues like
isolation and teasing by classmates.
Parents can help children take control of their weight and fitness levels by encouraging
activity. Some suggestions for different ages and stages:
Gymnastics Training and Fitness: Being Your Best by Jen Jones
A guide for children and pre-teens on ways to train and keep fit for gymnastics.
How to Teach Your Baby to be Physically Superb: Birth to Age Six
by Glenn Doman
This parenting book helps you help your child develop healthy fitness habits.
Mousercise produced by Walt Disney Records
Exercise to Mickey Mouse tunes on this audio CD.
Babar’s Yoga for Elephants by Laurent de Brunhoff
Babar the elephant demonstrates and provides stepby-step instructions for basic yoga techniques and
positions, then shows how he and Celeste use them to
relax and have fun as they travel around the world.
Elmo’s World Reach for the Sky
produced by Sesame Street
Join Elmo on this DVD as he discovers how much fun
it can be to go to school, to jump really high and to
reach the sky. Elmo finds out how important the sun is
to everyone, how jumping is a great form of exercise
and the importance of going to school.
Canton’s 100 Days to Health
The Canton Public Library is joining
with Canton Township to host special
children’s programs for the 100 Days to
Health. Topics include children’s fitness
and nutrition. Check the Township’s
website at www.canton-mi.org for dates,
times and registration information.
Coaching Kids
@ Your Library
A great way for parents to encourage
kids to be fit is to participate with
them in activities by coaching or
helping on a sports team. If you’re not
an expert, find plenty of coaching help
with how-to videos and books, like
How to Coach Tee Ball Without
Going Insane by Robert Doss or
Soccer for the First-Time Coach
by Butch Lauffer.
