"Skunk & Badger - I’m your new roommate, Skunk!" by Amy Timberlake

No one wants a skunk. They are unwelcome on front stoops. They should not linger in rock rooms. Skunk should never, ever be allowed to move in. But Skunk is Badger’s new roommate, and there is nothing Badger, who prefers to be left alone with his Important Rock Work, can do about it.

Skunk plows into Badger’s life, and Badger’s life is upended. Rocket Potatoes are left in corners. Tails are flipped. The wrong is animal is sprayed. And why-o-why are there so many chickens?

Virtual Books 'n Bites - “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho


May 10, 2023

The library's book club meets each month for a fun and lively virtual book club experience!

We meet on the second Wednesday of the month via Zoom.

Join us! this month when we will discuss the book:

“The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho

The inspiring spiritual tale of self-discovery that has touched millions of lives around the world. Combining magic, mysticism, wisdom, and wonder, The Alchemist has become a modern classic, selling millions of copies around the world and transforming the lives of countless readers across generations. Paulo Coelho’s masterpiece tells the mystical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure. His quest will lead him to riches far different–and far more satisfying–than he ever imagined. Santiago’s journey teaches us about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, of recognizing opportunity and learning to read the omens strewn along life’s path, and, most importantly, following our dreams.

Email Sandy at SRivera@vailgov.com for an invitation to the monthly Books ‘n’ Bites.
