Weekly Spotlight


Spring is almost here, and you know what that means! Rain, rain, and MORE rain. (Okay, maybe it means warmer weather and flowers beginning to pop up too.) The Spring rains have definitely started and I'm sure we are in for our first big thunderstorm very soon. Have you ever wondered exactly what happens during a thunderstorm? What exactly are thunder and lightning? For the answers, take a look at Thunderstorms by Chana Stiefel, or one of our many other weather related books.

Want to check this book out? Thunderstorms is located in our Nonfiction Collection under the call number J551.554 STI. (All of our other true fact books about weather are right there too.)

Nutmeg Books

The 2012 Nutmeg Nominees have been out for a couple of months now and our copies of the books have been flying off the shelves. Since everyone seems to be enjoying them, I thought I'd ask - does anyone have a favorite yet?
