Teddy Sleep Over in the Library

Last night in the library we had our Spooktacular Night at the Library.  We shared some spooky picture books, made some creepy masks and eyeball bookmarks and we also had a teddy sleepover.  The kids who came along brought a special friend who then stayed over night in the library.
