Reading: a family affair at Maud Marks

Reading is a family affair at Maud Marks. We welcome all brothers, sisters, parents, grand parents and great grand parents. Since it opened in July 1993 the library has really grown with the community, encompassing generations of readers. Sometimes you would see  all members of an extended family together. To name a few here are Preston and Addy with mom, Grandma and Great grandma. We also would like you to meet the Eichhorn brothers, Micah, Noah and Luke  as we spotted them enjoying  books on Maud Marks floor.
