The Hobbit: A Library Celebration!

Hi Everyone!

With December just around the corner, I thought I should finally leak all of the information on our upcoming program called "The Hobbit: A Library Celebration" which is being held on Saturday, December 8th!

This is going to be a HUGE event!  We'll have tons of crafts, activities, presenters, and prizes.  Some of the highlights include (but are not limited to!):

• Decorate your own canvas travel bags
• Make your own Elven brooch
• Answer some of Gollum's riddles
• Create your own Middle-Earth crown
• Piece together a dragon bookmark
• Discover Middle-Earth with maps
• Practice your rune writing
• Find out what inspired Tolkien
• Watch a wizard make magic out of paper
• Enjoy swordfight reenactments

Like I said, there will be tons to do!  So stop the Sharonville Branch Library now to pick up a flyer and official schedule of events so you don't miss your favorite activities.  And please help us send a HUGE thank you to our friends at Warner Bros. for supplying us with a plethora of prizes for you guys to win (yes, that actually happened)!

Also, we still need volunteers to help us with the activities we have scheduled for the day, so please stop by the library and ask how you can help out!  Costumes would be fantastic, but are not required.

And, of course, be sure to check out the movie's website: link!  Who will be seeing The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey?!  Let us know in the comments below.
