Join David Harrison & Friends for Voices in the Night

 On warm spring nights, if we step outside we may hear a symphony of sounds -- whistles, whirs, clicks and cries. What makes these noises we hear in the night?

On Wednesday, April 19 at 7 p.m. in the Library Center auditorium, families with kids in grades K-6 are invited to hear bestselling author David Harrison, delightful musician Judy Domeny and our friends from the Springfield Conservation Nature Center when they explore these sounds and the creatures that make them.

Kids will learn facts about local nocturnal animals, enjoy stories and poems and even get to make some night sounds themselves!

David's book "After Dark, Poems About Nocturnal Animals" will be available for purchase and signing.
