Open to all children from ages 0-5. Starts Wednesday February 5.
The library's weekly Lego Club will run again on Thursdays after school, starting February 6. Join in the weekly challenges or build and create whatever you like. Become a Lego Master and challenge yourself! Open to anyone between 5-18 years of age.
New Books
'What You Pay For' by Claire Askew. DI Birch joined the police to find her little brother, who walked out of her life one day and was never seen again. She stayed to help others, determined to seek justice where she could. On the fourteenth anniversary of Charlie's disappearance, Birch takes part in a raid on one of Scotland's most feared criminal organisations. It's a good day's work- a chance to get a dangerous man off the streets. Two days later, Charlie comes back. It's not a coincidence. When Birch finds out exactly what he's been doing all these years, she faces a terrible choice; save the case, or save her brother. But how can you do the right thing when all the consequences are bad? As she interrogates Charlie, he tells his story; of how one wrong turn leads to a world in which normal rules no longer apply, and you do what you must to survive.
