Pleasant Grove Library

I'm putting a plug in for our PG library!  They have really great programs and awesome librarians (is that politically correct to say 'librarians'? or are they 'book keepers'? Or 'media stewards'?)
The program the girls and I enjoy is the one below: (and not just because we are in the picture) lol
Great Reads for Girls : A Mother-Daughter Book Club
Great Reads For Girls

Join other girls and their mothers or other caring adult for lively discussions, activities, and fun. Girls ages 8 to 16 are encouraged to join. Great Reads meets the first Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm. This program is free but requires registration. Please come call or come into the library to register and also to pick up a copy of the current book.
