Hi!  This is Rachel Malay, director at the Port Library in Beloit.  If you have any last minute gifts to make, be sure to plan on coming to the library next Thursday at 7 pm.  The library will have a program for adults and teens on homemade sugar scrubs – good for softening dry winter skin.  All attendees will be able to make a small jar to take for themselves or as a gift. Call the library by Tuesday to sign up.

Christmas is two weeks away and if you want to get in the holiday mood with a good book, try this week’s Port Pick. A Prairie Christmas Collection by Tracie Peterson and others is not a recently published book, but it is new to the library’s shelves. Nine authors have worked together on this collection of historical Christian romances, all set in the prairie Midwest. Tracie Peterson’s story God Jul (Swedish for Merry Christmas) is set in Lindsborg Kansas and tells the story of Sigrid Larsson, a spinster who finds more than one beau come Christmastime! Deborah Raney, an award winning author from Kansas has penned Circle of Blessings, the tale of Stella Bradford, who is in love with her university professor. But Stella’s beau seems to be hiding something, and Stella isn’t sure if her father will approve of the match. In One Wintry Night by Pamela Griffin, Ivy Leander resents the move from Boston to a rural Nebraska town when her father remarries. Ivy would do anything to be able to move back into society and resents those who try to make friends with her. But Craig Watson sees through Ivy’s frosty exterior and tries his best to teach her about the true meaning of Christmas. Six other equally entertaining and heartwarming stories fill out this seasonal collection.

You can get the book reviewed here and more great titles to watch, read, listen to, or play with at the Port Library at 1718 N. Hersey in Beloit.  This is director Rachel Malay, saying “Thanks for checking us out!”
