The Children's Room

Holiday Special

Please join us on Wednesday, Dec. 17, at 7:30 p.m. for a unique program based on this year's Newbery Medal-winning book, Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! . Middle school students will perform monologues or duologues they have written based on the book, which looks at life in a medieval village. The poems were developed over the course of a three-session workshop led by local poets Elizabeth Rees and Rosanne Singer. At the Dec. 17 performance, medieval music will be provided by the students of local musician/music teacher Wendy Lanxner, and refreshments will be provided. This program is a great -- and different -- way to celebrate the holidays and is perfect for children ages 5 up. Please register so we can have enough refreshments for all. Thanks to the Friends of the Takoma Park Maryland Library for sponsoring the workshop and the performance.
