Wondering what to read next? Check out our new monthly mystery bags for adults! Mystery bags have a different theme every month and contain a surprise selection of 4-5 books and movies, an adult craft, and other treats. Return the books and movies when you're done with them - keep the other goodies! April's theme is "Natural Wonders". The April bag will include a selection of non-fiction and fiction books about nature, animals, and the great outdoors. The craft is a paper butterfly display jar. Registration opens March 22nd. Call the library at 641-792-4108 to register.
