Quinn," on Friday, June 29, at 1 p.m. Join us for a spine-tingling good

Writing the Ghost Story
"A
long, dark driveway towards an old farmhouse. A new stepsister with a nasty
streak. A little sister who runs off. Something sinister lurking in the woods.
Cassie Quinn's new home comes with . . . complications. Cassie never believed
in ghosts before. But now she is receiving strange messages, telling her to
stay out of the woods. Are the messages just a ploy by her stepsister? Or are
they warning her of an evil that stalks the shadows of the woods beyond her
home?"

Understand Your Dreams
Have you ever woken up wondering what that weird dream you had the night before meant? You may have told your friends about the dream--and they may have been just as clueless about it.
A workshop on dream analysis, "Understanding the
Dreams You Dream," with author Craig Groethe, will be held in the large
meeting room on Monday, June 11, at 10:30 a.m. This will be a fun, interactive,
and enlightening class. With an overview of the types of dreams, their significance,
and the symbolic language of dreams, participants will learn how to glean
insight from their own dreams. The program is intended for both teen and adult
audiences.
Mr. Groethe is the author of the book "Sleeping with Your Eyes
Open—Warning Dreams." He hosted a radio show called "Talk About
A Dream" and has spoken across the Midwest. Read more information
about dreams on his website: www.dreamclassguy.com. The workshop is free thanks to
sponsorship by the Arrowhead Library System and money from the Arts and
Cultural Heritage Fund.
