Latest Happenings at the Library:
On July 2nd, the first book from the popular American Girl series, will appear on the big screen, starring Abigail Breslin as the scrappy nine-year-old Kit Kittredge…chasing her dream to become a reporter and help her family get through the Great Depression. Academy Award-winner Julia Roberts, the Executive Producer, will bring Kit’s historical figure to life. In addition to Breslin, the Kit Kittredge cast also includes Joan Cusack, Glenne Headly, Jane Krakowski, Chris O’Donnell, Julia Ormond, Wallace Shawn, Stanley Tucci, Madison Davenport, Zach Mills, Willow Smith, and Max Thieriot. According to Katy Rich, at CinemaBlend.com, “This is a movie about girl power that isn’t secretly about fashion and looking hot.” What is hot, is the Army’s partnership with Picturehouse Films, to give one lucky girl a chance to win an all-inclusive trip and $1,000 shopping spree to an American Girl store location. From May 1st through June 30th, authorized Army MWR patrons ages 6-16 are invited to visit their post library to check out the Kit Kittredge book display and to learn more about how they can win the trip or a set of Kit Kittredge An American Girl books. They can also enter the online sweepstakes and get a sneak peak at the movie at www.ArmyMWR.com. The promotion runs the 1st of May through the 30th of June…just in time for the movie release on July 2nd. Go to: www.armymwr.com or visit your post library for a list of participating locations, more info and to enter! ________________________________________________________________________ The Vicenza Library serves the educational, research, and recreational needs of the Vicenza community by providing an array of materials and services.
