Scroll down four posts from here to start the slideshow for our recent Stuffed Aminal Sleepover! We took so many photos, it took four posts to get them all in!
Whit was right! Charlotte was on the back porch chatting with Paddington Bear. He's her all-time favorite book character and he was kind enough to give her his autograph! After finding out that all was well, it was bathroom and story time just before bed. They were a rambunctious crew. It took poor Mrs. Knipes hours to get them settled down. She managed to finally get some sleep around 3am! Thanks to everyone who brought in animals this year. We hope you had a great summer at the library with Oceans of Possibilities!
They filed into the police stating very politely and started looking for Whit Montgomery, our chief of police. They told them what had happened and he was very calming. He told them that Charlotte was likely still at the library and not to worry. He even volunteered to show them around and drive them back to the library to check on her. When they got there.....
Looks familiar!

Beth was happy to see them! It was there that they realized that someone was missing!!!!! Charlotte the Rabbit was nowhere to be found! They were very concerned, so they headed down the mountain to the police department to report a missing stuffie...
Here are the first of the photos from our recent Stuffed Animal Sleepover on August 3. The 40 or so animals that came had a great time playing through the summer decorations. But after a while, they spied the golf cart......
Perfectly adorable!
