It’s always exciting when we can offer a program that is appropriate and fun for all ages, something you can make a day of with your whole family. February’s WOW Program, taking place Sunday, February 19 at 2:00 p.m., is just that. In conjunction with FIFEM, we’re showing a great children’s film that celebrates the wonder of children’s literature: Eleanor’s Secret.
Internationally acclaimed, this film is the charming story of a young boy, Nat, who is given a library of rare books by his Aunt Eleanor. Nat isn’t particularly pleased with this amazing gift, however, because he can’t read. But one night, the fairytale characters in the books begin coming to life and they inform Nat that Eleanor’s library protects them, and if the books leave the library, they will disappear forever. Take a look at the trailer to get a glimpse into this magical film.
The animation in Eleanor’s Secret is incredibly beautiful, and the story is sure to charm book lovers, no matter their age. Tickets are available for free as of today at the Main Desk of the Library, so stop by anytime during opening hours to reserve your place. It’s the perfect way to spend a cold February Sunday!
