New Animal Friends at the Library

by Savannah Wallace

The Children’s Library at the Corydon branch has some new furry residents. Four large stuffed animals were purchased for children’s activity room at the beginning of the year. Many patrons will remember the giant stuffed bears that lived in the activity room. While they were very much loved, the time had come for them to be retired. The children’s library staff decided to replace them with four different types of animals including a wolf, lion, tiger and turtle. The staff decided it would be fun to give the animals literary names since they will live in a library. The names they chose are Virginia Woolfe the wolf, Leo Tolstoy the lion, Mary Shelley the turtle, and Nathaniel Pawthorne the tiger. Next time you visit stop by and introduce yourself to our new friends.
