Decorating “Boots” for the Fair

How cute are these children at Nevada County library’s Bear River branch decorating “boots” for the display at the Nevada County Fair?! This is part of the library’s summer reading program, where children read book and create artwork that will be on display at the Fair. Additionally, children who complete the program will receive two free carnival rides at this year’s Fair. Good job, kids!
