Welcome to the Broadford Library Weekly Newsletter!
Each week, I will be bringing you a look back on the previous week in the library, including the fun that our lunchtime library clubs have had, new books, children's book reviews, library displays and much more!

Lunchtime library club
Last week, our lunchtime Library Club children enjoyed celebrating the Lunar New Year of the Horse with some creative colouring.
Book of the Week
The Book of the Week last week was Jamie Johnson: The Kick Off by Dan Freedman. Jamie Johnson is desperate to become his school's star football player (and in his dreams, a top professional too). But after he ruins his chances at the trials, could his football career be over before it has even begun?!

Broadford Library In Numbers - Spring 1 term

Urgent request - Returning borrowed library books
We have so many lovely books in our library but, unfortunately, many of them get borrowed by a child and then never returned to the library. Please can you check at home to see if you have any Broadford library books (stamped inside/Broadford logo attached). If you do, please pass them to your child to return to the library asap, where our Book Monster is waiting to eat them! Thank you.
