Second Sunday with Friends: Magician Ran’D Shine

Ran’D Shine —See the magic at the Lackawanna County Children’s Library! Sponsored by the Friends of the Scranton Public Library

Ran’D considers magic as much more than just entertainment. He wants to expand your mind . . . get you to look at things from a different angle . . . and explore a bit of what the term “diversity” truly means. (DYK that the first American born magician was Black?)

That’s why he has traveled extensively to Africa to mix magic with exploring his roots. The lessons he learned there are shouting to be shared. https://www.randyshine.com/news

Second Sunday with Friends: Reading with Reptiles from Clyde Peelings Reptiland

Enter the fascinating world of Clyde Peeling’s Reptiland with this interactive story time featuring LIVE rainforest animals! Sponsored by the Friends of the Scranton Public Library.

Nowhere on earth can a greater diversity of life forms be found than in the tropical rainforests that straddle the equator. Plants and animals are disappearing at an alarming rate as these forests are slashed and burned. This program is a celebration of rainforest diversity. Through the use of an assortment of live animals representing habitats from the canopy to the forest floor, and a poison-dart blowpipe demonstration, audiences are introduced to the excitement of jungle life.
