This creepy, creeping spider comes to you via Melissa Widner, Webmaster at the Jasper County Public Library in Rensselaer, IN. It follows your mouse around. What fun!

Customize the spider and put it on your own web pages, blogs, iGoogle page or wherever you want. Visit the Spider page to customize it and get the code to paste to your own pages.

p.s. there’s a pretty cool frog that eats flies there too!

Voting has begun in the StoryTubes contest.  Seven children from New York State have submitted entries and some NY entries have made it to the finals.

Watch all the NY entries! Then visit the StoryTubes site to view all the finalists and to vote.

Book lists

A recent comment on this blog sent me looking for reading lists for the “catch the reading bug” theme. I found a few and added them to a a new Booklists page in the Planners section of the summerreadingnys.org site. If you know of other book lists to add to this list, let us know by leaving a comment below. Thanks!

The Billy Gorilly website has a catchy little mp3 for use by summer reading programs.

And the CSLP site has several audio files for your use as well.

Buggy Glasses


Margaret Keefe at Mid-Hudson Library System found these fun fire ant glasses and other buggy products at the GrowingTrees.com web site.
