The "Battle of the Books" for 4th-5th graders took place
on May 1, and the Lime Team conquered!
Congratulations to team members
Dionna Bidny, Nina Denne,
Seiji Furukawa and Haripriya Mehta!


It does a librarian's heart good to see young people with a passion for reading and learning. If you ask most librarians, you'll get a similar story about developing a love for books and reading - and maybe even having some fun experiences at the Library - at an early age. We are proud of our Des Plaines kids and we look forward to seeing all of you for this year's Summer Reading Club, "Read on the Wild Side!"
