Recommended Read
“Attack of the 50-Foot Fluffy” by Mike Boldt

“This is one of those books in Storytime where it gets completely quiet at the story’s climax.  This book goes step by step through a day that isn’t going great for the main character, to the point where she gets angry.  The illustrations depict her stuffy growing 40 feet, and she damages a playground swing.  But it resolves with the help of her empathetic friends, and she cleans up what she breaks.  A great book showing young children tough emotions.” --Melanie, Youth Services

"Drag Queen Story Hour was so so wonderful!! Thank you for hosting it!!" - Alison
As a patron was choosing a new library card at Meadows, she decided on the photo of the main library at night because when she visited Boulder and saw the main library, she decided she wanted to live here. - Monnie, Branch Manager
