“To describe my mother would be to write about a hurricane in its perfect power. Or the climbing, falling colors of a rainbow.” — Maya Angelou, “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings”
May is a special time of year when we celebrate the blooming of flowers and our admiration for the women and mothers in our lives. To give thanks to all the women that visit the Fryeburg Public Library, they will have special for grown-ups, take and make kits, as well as Mother’s Day-themed take and make kits for children. The kits will be available throughout the month of May. Stop by and pick one up while supplies last.
