PAJAMA STORY HOUR AND STUFFED ANIMAL SLEEPOVER
Humeston Public Library invites you to their annual Teddy Bear Sleepover. Bring your pillows, blankets and favorite sleeping stuffed animal and listen to a couple stories while enjoying a light snack and drink. After the stories are read, you get to tuck your sleepy furry friend in and let them have a sleepover with all their furry friends. When you pick them up on Saturday morning, you will get to see if your animal caused any trouble or if they played by the rules. Hope to see you there with all your favorite furry friends!!
