Brought To You By Your Rapides Parish Library
March brings with it warmer weather, the beginning of blooms, and the promise of many sunny days to come! As you prepare to get out in your yard or take an excursion to one of our beautiful local natural sites, stop by your library to pick up a new book or get access to downloadable audio and eBooks to enjoy.
Some fun reads for kids that highlight the wonders of springtime (with a hint of adventure) include In the Night Garden by Carin Berger, The Flower Garden by Renee Kurilla, and Don’t Touch That Flower by Alice Hemming.
We also have some fun, practical reads for adults who love to garden or simply enjoy the bounty of the season in our beautiful state! If that describes you, check out The Louisiana Urban Gardener by Kathryn Fontenot, The Southern Vegetable Book by Rebecca Lang, or Fresh from Louisiana: the Soul of Cajun and Creole Home Cooking by George Graham.
If whipping up a fresh veggie-based meal and journeying into the wild aren’t your thing, that’s okay as well. Your library offers numerous classes and events including flower arranging, cupcake decorating, and painting classes in the month of March; guest lectures from Cenla Author of the Month Curt Iles and Cenla Artists of the Month the Patience Quilters Guild; technology classes for every age and ability level. No matter what the spring weather may have in store for us, there will always be enjoyable events in the comfort of your local branch of the Rapides Parish Library. You can easily view our upcoming events as well as browse the catalog of items we have available for checkout by visiting www.rpl.org.
As you are planning to spring into this new season, March is a great time to hop by and see what every bunny knows, there is always something amazing to enjoy at your Rapides Parish Library.
