Library Story Time

Children's library reference assistant Jean Walter dresses festively and literately as "The Very Hungry Caterpillar," not only wearing the costume but reading the Eric Carle children's classic.

Thursday's weather may have postponed trick or treating and other activities, but it couldn't drown the Halloween spirit in the little readers during the Putnam County Public Library's story time.

Following story time, Emily Hunsinger, dressed as a princess cowgirl, and Aden Beasley as Jake of "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" work intently on their story time crafts.

Meanwhile, Sage Cummings stays cozy in his Elmo costume and a rocking chair.
