Play and Learn at Post Road

Last year, the Post Road Library added an exciting new feature to their Children’s Area - the Play n Learn Table. 

Geared towards preschoolers, this activity station emphasizes important early childhood concepts, including numbers, letters, shapes, fine motor skills, and pretend play. The table also encourages children to practice their “soft skills,'' such as sharing, taking turns, playing together, and picking up after themselves.

The Lesson by Cadwell Turnbull

In Cadwell Turnbull’s 2019 science fiction novel, The Lesson, a sophisticated alien ship appears in the skies over Water Island in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The Ynaa bring promising technological and medical advancements to Earth while agreeing to confine themselves to the Caribbean island. While the majority of Earth's people benefit from contact with the alien species, living alongside the Ynaa radically alters the lives of the islanders who experience the aliens' sudden violence firsthand and question the cryptic meaning behind their promise to depart once they’ve imparted an important lesson to the people of Earth.
