Cold-blooded friends visit “Monday Night Madness” at Holmes Public Library

August 17, 2017 By Stephanie Spyropoulos

Holmes Public Library   “Monday night Madness” summer reading program ended on a slithery note with Museum of Science  traveling reptile education and presentation by Kim Cooper- Vernon Education Associate.

Herpetologists for a night, the children and parents watched as Cooper-Vernon spoke and presented the reptiles to the classroom. With a white board she also talked about what makes a reptile and how to recognize these creatures.

One child shouted ‘Godzilla is a reptile’ when asked who knows what a reptile is? The night was silly, slithery and appeared to be a hit as there were no empty seats to be had.

Some of the children made silly faces as the animals appeared as did the parents.

Murdock really enjoyed seeing his reflection in the cage and on the animal cam, which gave kids a closer look at the animal’s features.
